Fantastic! - By: Funmum, 19 Apr 2008 
This book reallly sparks the imagination! I bought this to top up an order & dont regret it! One of my children just "doesnt do drawing" & said at 11 she was "too old for colouring in". I gave her this & she didnt out it down for days, completing page after page of detailed & imaginative artwork.
The book gives the idea, a basic start such as "design a stamp for the first postcard sent from Mars" & a postcard outline... or "The artist hurt his thumb as he was starting his picture, can you help him out?" & they are off! Great for any child who has difficulty with imaginative artwork or who has trouble creating something pleasing from scratch :)
Brilliant! Buy One...or two!! - By: Pippin and Tog, 10 Apr 2008 I bought this for my ten year old daughter who is art mad! Ordinary colouring books are OK but limit creativity to "what colour shalll I use next?" This book is wonderful, it asks the user to think about what they want to draw by starting with the germ of an idea & then letting the user decide where to take it from there!
My daughter & her friends were facinated by it!
Excellent for home, school, play groups, after school clubs etc.
I can't get enough of these books! - By: L. White, 25 Aug 2004 I first saw this book on someone else's bookshelf, & just had to track down my own copy. Since then I've bought several more, because the children love them! So much better than the colour-the-spaces-and-don't-go-over-the-lines books, these books encourage children to use their imagination. I tried to get one for myself, but the children saw it & I lost it again!
Draw the new fish that's been discovered, draw the picture that goes with the report of the first alien to land on earth, draw your nightmare, draw your daydream. Simple enough for a young child to use (it helps if they can read the few words of instruction) & inspiring enough for older children, up to teenagers (older than that will probably think it's not "cool" until they reach adulthood!). Because you're drawing your own designs alll the time, the children are even asking for second & third copies of the book.
