My Take on the Book
When I saw this book, I thought of my youngest daughter who loves to color and draw. She enjoys art projects , making gifts, and cards.

Stephanie Corfee takes the "worry" out of being creative. She tells the reader not to be intimidated by a blank page or the feeling that your drawings must be perfect. Stephanie gives the reader suggestions for the tools to use in the book, step by step exercises, and lots of hints on each page.

Each page has a different kind of activity. There is no right or wrong way to work on the art page. This is your book of drawings/doodlings and it should be fun. I know just looking at it, it will provide someone with hours and hours of creative choices.

At the end of the book, the author shows the reader how to extend the drawing concept to clothing, rocks, and other objects. I really think if you enjoy drawing or doodling that you will thoroughly enjoy Stephanie's book.
