Reviews

Amazon Customer

As someone who loves drawing but is always disappointed with the results, I was delighted to see that this book gives such clear guidance that its really hard to go wrong. There are over 50 kawaii drawings ranging from animals through food and people to fantasy and expressions. The illustrations are easy to follow and have detailed instructions for every step of the way. Although recommended for 10 years and over my 8 year old granddaughter was able to follow the illustrations (the written instructions are in a font she found difficult to follow) and was very happy with the finished results. She was keen to take it home to help occupy her in the school holidays!
