Books with title Pencil, Paper, Draw!®: Animals

An adorable tiger cub. A cuddly bunny with a carrot in its paws. An irresistible penguin—everyone’s favorite animal these days. Those are just a few of the cute baby creatures any child can draw in just a few steps. This newest entry in the popular art series for kids ages 7 to 10 makes it simple to create pictures young artists will be proud to show off. With the help of shaded lines to guide their pencils and crayons across the page, children will produce a menagerie of wild and domesticated beasts, from a funny monkey on a log to a bright yellow duckling splashing in a puddle, from a little elephant to a puppy, kitten, or tiny mouse.

With so many adorable dogs to choose from—from a cute cocker spaniel to a friendly-looking rottweiler—every child will be able to draw the puppy he or she likes best. And the variety also helps build skills, as youngsters master the art of depicting bodies small and tall, long hair and short, pointy ears and floppy, and faces of every conceivable shape.

This lively and imaginative collection will please anyone who enjoys making paper models. Each animal of the menagerie has its own distinctive character and, as Annabelle Curtis is an expert paper sculptor she has succeeded in combining simple constructions with charming final results. There is also a pull-out section which suggests further design ideas.
