Your Child, the Artist! You might even learn a thing or two yourself. Imagine that!

When children draw, they want to create an accurate likeness of the things they see. Perhaps an equivalent representation of what they want to show. With this imaginative, informative, and amply illustrated guide, it's amazingly easy for kids to make their art dreams come true.

The entertaining, hands-on lessons begin with contour drawing techniques and feature numerous exercises that show budding artists how to make basic shapes and forms, create the illusion of volume with light, use perspective, and accurately draw people, animals, landscapes, and more.
