Great book. Even my 11 year olds art teacher at school asked to borrow it. Makes harder things to draw easy with a great "break down" approach.
It would be hard for an adult to use this book let alone a child, at least in my opinion. I ordered this book for my 8 year old grandson who loves to draw. The title said this book was for kids, and showed pictures of children around his age on the cover and back cover.When the book arrived I was totally dissapointed. I think it is way too advanced for kids. I thought the techniques would be more basic, and easier for children to follow.This book might be good for pre-teens or teens who have lots of artistic talent in them already, but for the average child who just likes to have fun drawing I thought it was way too advanced.
I got this as a gift for my 9 year old son. After two weeks, I have noticed a huge improvement in his sketches. This book is helping him to perfect his creative talent.
Art for Kids: Drawing: The Only Drawing Book You'll Ever Need to Be the Artist You've Always Wanted to BeFound this book to be perfect for the budding artistin the 12 year old range. Very detailed and yetyou can pick and chose what you want to work on.Many helpful hints that I didn't pick up til mycollege art classes. Great gift.
My 11-year old son loves to draw. (I bought it from Amazon for a Christmas present). His skills are self taught, and he has checked out MANY books from the library over the years. He recently checked out this book and declared it one of the best he'd ever seen. Even though he already understands shading, perspective, etc., he thought this book helped him improve even more. The book also has a lot on drawing people and faces, which can be very challenging.
