Product Description:
This book combines the delightful projects of Ed Emberley's Great Thumbprint Drawing Book and Fingerprint Drawing Book all in one. Although the content of the book is literally the same as those found in its components, the compilation does not provide the introductory advice/suggestion pages as the individual books do. Instead, the book quickly jumps into the projects themselves. Don't let this deter you from considering this book though. Although the advice pages are helpful, fingerprint art is simple enough to pick up on your own. Follow the step by step instructions to make various animals, people, objects, etc or experiment with your own fingerprint drawings. ~ Enh
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
