Kids Draw Funny and Spooky Holiday Characters

School Library Journal

Gr 3-6-Starting with the basic art principles of body movement, line flow, posing of characters, etc., the author concentrates on cartoon drawings for Halloween and Christmas. Two pages of drawing tips are also included for Thanksgiving, Easter, St. Patrick's Day, Valentine's Day, Groundhog's Day, and Friday the 13th. Minimal chatter about the characters and ways to make them look lively and appealing accompany the drawings. There are no steps for drawing the figures, so this is not a book for beginning artists.-Cathie Reed, The Montessori School, Lutherville, MD Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
