Draw-A-Saurus - Don't Let Your Drawing Skills Fossilize



::My Review::
Like most kids, boys and girls alike, my kiddos are really into dinosaurs. And they both happen to be into drawing as well. So I knew when I seen this book I had to have it for them! I wasn't disappointed, and they were sure thrilled as well with it. This book has easy to follow instructions on drawing dinosaurs, and even some fun facts throughout.
The colors are vivid and captivating, and my kids were absorbed. I have to admit even I was captivated by this book and couldn't put it down at first. My favorite thing is the detailed step-by-step advice this book gives. It doesn't just thrust you in there scrambling to draw what you see on the pages, but guides you along.
It's also very humorous. This is unlike ordinary drawing books we have come across, this drawing book makes it a FUN experience, and one your kids will love!



::About the book::
This in-depth yet accessible dinosaur drawing guide combines humor, creativity, and the latest dino research to show artists young and old how to breathe life into drawings of their prehistoric favorites.

Prehistoric Pencil Power!
Even though they lived some 65 million years ago, dinosaurs and other prehistoric reptiles continue to rule today. From movies to comics and cartoons, these ancient, giant beasts are everywhere you turn. Of course, who wants to just read about or watch these dinos when you can learn how to use pencils, pens, markers, and more to draw your very own?

Cartoonist James Silvani combines easy-to-follow art exercises with the latest, greatest dino-facts to help you create fun and cool dinosaur doodles all by yourself. With lessons on old favorites like T-rex and stegosaurus, as well as lesser-known (but still awesome) creatures like the massive argentinosaurus, Draw-a-Saurus has everything the dinosaur fan could ever ask for (outside of their very own pet dino!).
