Drawing with Children
by Mona Brookes
If summer feels boring for your kids, teach them to draw. “But I don’t know how to draw,” you moan. Well, Mona Brookes shows you and your child how to “see” objects and the space around them and be able to draw it quite accurately. This isn’t a book where you draw a circle for the head and a bigger circle for the body. No, this gem of a book moves you from contour drawing to more detailed endeavors. You will be amazed at how quickly your child’s drawing (and your own,) progress into lovely works of art! I like using it as a jumping off place for writing a story or poem to go along with the illustrations. It’s a great book for whole family participation. Take a look at it on my Amazon Store.
