Description

This is a cute drawing book that anyone can use. Really, it's that easy, and the results look so good and creative. All you really need is your thumb, a stamp pad, and a pen. The author then shows you pages and pages of animals, people, and other things you can make simply with your thumbprint and a few simple lines. Each page shows steps to making the drawings, making it simple enough for even the very young. Includes pictures of people with various expressions, actions, occupations, and hats, lots of animals, flowers, multi-thumbprint creatures and other fun variations. You'll be able to make a pirate, cowgirl, doctor, man with a turban, caterpillar, lion, frog, spider, mouse, and tons more. And after a little bit of practice, you'll be ready to make your own original thumbprint drawings! These are great little personalized drawings to put on gift tags, cards, and anything else. - Melissa

Category Description for Ed Emberley Thumbprint Drawing Books

I love the Ed Emberley books - all of the drawings of people and animals are absolutely adorable! Each drawing is done in a step-by-step manner with very basic lines and shapes until you end up with an unbelievably cute creation. The drawings are shown on progressive lines, with the shapes and lines for each step shown underneath each "evolved" picture. The Green book features mostly people and animals but please note that there is a small section containing a Dracula, Frankenstein, and Mr. Hyde. The Purple book features insects, animals, vehicles, pirates, etc., and the Red book contains lots of American symbols, ships, vehicles, animals, and Christmas paraphernalia (and a devil drawing). Overall, these books are very well done and with little natural artistic talent necessary, people of all ages can have great success at drawing. ~ Megan
