Note from author:
My goal for this book was to provide your kid with frustration-free instructions so they can draw quickly and confidently, without giving up! The steps in this book are broken down into basic, easy-to-learn “C” and “S” shapes that make it simple for them to follow along. A good tip for artists of all ages is to draw your lines lightly in pencil first—that way it’s easier to erase if you make a mistake or need to remove something. With just a few basic tips, your kid will be drawing with confidence and proud of their creations!
Easy to follow. Light-hearted. Engaging and full of all the things we want to draw! From ice cream cones and pineapples, trucks and baseball caps, to seashells, unicorns and castles - and of course all of the wild things! Alli has created the most interactive and encouraging book with All the Things. She includes helpful pointers and wonderful suggestions that help the young artist create beautiful pieces of art while feeling encouraged to explore their own style. A must-have for kids, and a wonderful book to have on hand to reference at all times - and to gift to all of your friends!
