Activity Books

Typical drawing books show how to draw something -- a horse, for example, or maybe a car -- in solitary splendor on a blank white page. But wouldn't you rather learn how to draw a complete scene, so that the horse can be driving the car, down a freeway, next to the ocean? So much better! With Draw Your World Your Way, any crazy thing you can dream up, you can draw up. Cats in space, hippos in the lunchroom, pirates on the playground -- we've got you covered. The book's three sections are crammed with simple step-by-steps for drawing all kinds of Creatures & Characters, Objects, and Backgrounds. Hand pick your projects to combine the perfect elements for a conventional scene, or flip through the book at random to create complete craziness. Either way, you'll draw a drawing that has never been drawn before. Along with the hundreds of how-tos, Draw Your World Your Way comes with a pencil, fine-tipped drawing pen, four colored markers, and a 30-page sketch pad. All you need to add is a little creativity (or random chance) to create a world that's all your own.
