I still draw sheep the way Ed Emberley taught me...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ed Emberley's Drawing Book of Animals (Paperback)
Christmas presents from our American relations were always glamorous, but no present was as much loved and used as this book. After my sister was sent it, she shared it with me for the next decade, copying the animals in it and using it to make up our own. It breaks each animal (and bird, insect, reptile etc.) into its constituent parts and shows you how they should be put together to make the complete creature. As far as I remember, the dedication showed a picture of Emberley as a child with the caption 'For the boy I was, the book I could not find' and I always felt sorry for that little boy, waiting to grow up so that he could write the book for which he was waiting. I am now buying it for my godchildren and finally, thirty years on, I'm getting my own copy. I still draw sheep the way Ed Emberley taught me.

The most memorable book I owned as a child!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ed Emberley's Drawing Book of Animals (Paperback)
My mother ordered this book for me a long time ago when I was a child- and to this day it remains in my memory as one of the most valuable books of my childhood. The techniques are simple and easy- step-by-step basic geometric shapes are assembled to create all kinds of animals, reptiles, birds and even a dragon! I am thrilled to discover it is still in print! I highly recommend it to anyone who would like to learn to draw without a lot frustration and complicated ideas. (It is geared for children, but I think adults could use these techniques too).

No matter what your age, this book will help you to draw.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ed Emberley's Drawing Book of Animals (Paperback)
Ed Emberly's Drawing Book of Animals is a book that crosses age barriers. Whether you are a kindergarten student or an adult who has a phobia about drawing anything, with this book you can achieve success. I have used this book in my kindergarten classroom with great results. All my students thought they could draw anything and I found out by following the simple directions that I could too. I highly recommend this book as a gift to your young friends. Make it a complete gift with a pack of colored pens or pencils and a pad. Will keep them occupied for hours. It is good family fun for all to sit around the table and draw together. Even older kids quit feeling self conscious about their drawing and begin to enjoy creating a picture that looks like what they want it to look like. Now if you don't have any kids in mind don't let that stop you. If you know someone who does crafts, or needlework they will enjoy it too. Many ideas for decoration. Check out Ed Emberly's other titles too. Each book is based on the same principle of reducing all pictures into the basic shapes and lines we all can draw when we doodle. Ed makes your doodles into something else. Art!
