Drawing Shape by Shape: Create Cartoon Characters with Circles, Squares & Triangles (Volume 1) (Christopher Hart Books for Kids)

I bought this book as a gift for my great nephew. It is a wonderful introduction to drawing for children of all skill levels. The step-by-step illustrations make learning feel easy and fun, breaking each drawing into simple shapes and clear stages that he can confidently follow. Instead of feeling overwhelmed he was guided from the first line to the finished picture, which builds both his skills and his confidence. Overall, this book is an excellent resource for young artists. It’s engaging, educational, and is designed to help children enjoy drawing while developing their artistic abilities one step at a time. Great purchase!

This one combines 3 of his cartooning books : Draw a Circle Draw anything, Draw a Square Draw Anything and Draw a Triangle Draw Anything. I have seen this book many times at Michael's and just thought I was cool. I was right. Though it is meant for children ages 4 and up, artists of all ages and levels could enjoy this book. Fun and Simple, this book gets one inspired. Though I wish the templates we made out of something stronger, so that they would last longer, it was a good idea to put them in the book. All in all this is a great book and will make a great gift for an artist you know.

This is a terrific book to help teach shapes and their names to kids and those learning English. I’ve used it many times and everyone, students and staff, had fun. Instant “artists”!

My son has a bit of a delay in fine motor skills due to his prematurity and it is really hard for him to put on paper what he has in his head, so he gets sad when he is done, working so hard to draw a crocodile and he says " that doesn't look like anything". This book is really easy for him to work with and he is getting better and better at drawing and can finally be really proud of his drawings.

The book came with some damages. This company went beyond to make it right. My students love the book, and by learning to form shapes they are forming pre-writing skills.

I’m an elementary k-4 art teacher. I think this is a darling step by step drawing book. It has various levels of difficulty. Enjoyable for all! I recommend it!

We bought this book for our 7 year old daughter who loves to draw. By copying the simple instructions she was able to do really amazing work! A great book!

ordered used and it came in nicely packaged and no flaws that were mentioned in the description. My kids love following the steps in the books and are making lots of art!

Livro muito bom para adultos e crianças, com formas geométricas simples o autor ensina desenhos muito legais,além de desenvolver a criatividade brincando, gostei muito da didática do autor. Recomendo.

Estaba buscando un libro para usar con mis alumnos de infantil. Perfecto! Muy contento con el libro.

Good

Con instrucciones muy sencillas, es sorprendente como desde el principio se pueden aprender a realizar buen dibujo. Verdaderamente excelentes libros didácticos.

I bought this for my nephew, he's 12. Maybe he's a bit old for it but I thought it was a super-cute book and I'm probably going to use it sometime when he's not looking. Easy to follow, bright, clear instructions and the results are very cute. If a kid can learn what's in this book, I'm sure he'd be able to use it as a jumping-off point to bigger and better drawings!!!
