One of Charlie's Christmas gifts was this brilliant book. Ed Emberley's Drawing Book of Animals. I am so excited!
It shows a step by step way of drawing animals using simple shapes, triangles, squares etc. With amazing results. This morning both boys made this wonderful animal collage.

I have been told that primary school boys tend to lag behind girls at this age when it comes to drawing and craft. Hopefully, this will engage Charlie in drawing and give him more confidence.
(I've just noticed that this book has been really reduced on Amazon, a total bargain!).


I think I need one of these books for ME! Milla is always asking me to draw animals, and they all end up looking like weird dog/cat/sheep combos!
ReplyDeleteI love Charlies crab :)

I bought that book (plus another by the same author) for my younger son some years ago. I think it is brilliant!
