These two new titles in the Peel Productions' "How to Draw" series of 14 different books are especially designed for children ages six to ten. Starting with simple shapes--circles, ovals, and eggs--instructions show how to build a collection of delightful animals. While written instructions are kept to a minimum, easy-to-read facts about the animals enhance the drawing instruction.

The twelve other titles in the "How to Draw" series are designed to help anyone ages eight and up draw things from ocean animals and insects to sports figures and cars.

These books might be of interest to parents for use with young children and at-home practice. Teachers might find them useful as references when children are struggling with how to make something look right.
