Another excellent resource I plan to use in art classes. There are many adorable baby animal pictures in this book.

I got this book for finishing ten books for silver brich when I was in grade 5. I picked this book prize from the other five prizes. I was drawn in b the waords : draw and animals. I loved animals and this book was just what i needed. In about a week I learned (not perfectly) how to draw nearly a quater of the baby animals. thought i skipped a few steps (well i skipped alot) and just copied it the final step I leanred a few helpful things, like body portion size and how to draw what I see.
Its an adorble for beginer drawers who like to see the visual instead of read words on how to draw.

Nice step by step focused on shape and line. Unlike the other versions, the color overlays seem to blur the final images and cause detail to be lost which is a real downside. Still a nice primer for sketching animal shapes.
