Does your child, tween, or teen love super cute baby animals, boys, girls, and cartoon characters? Well this is called Kawaii / Chibi style and it is a part of the whole Manga/Anime craze. This book will teach them in an easy way how to draw 30+ cute Chibi boys and girls wearing costumes. Some of the costumes are animal onesie / pajamas and some of the costumes are theme or career related. And as a plus, most of these Chibi characters are cuddling with their super-cute Kawaii stuffed animals and pets. This book will teach your child how to draw, step by step, with the easiest approach possible...by using alphabet letters, numbers, symbols, and other simple shapes. Each tutorial makes learning how to draw Chibis as simple as possible. Kids will learn how to draw cute Chibi characters wearing all sorts of adorable costumes and onesies such as a magician, seal, witch, cat, chef, pirate, dinosaur, super hero, mouse, ribbon dancer, mermaid, mailman, astronaut, bear, bunny rabbit, doctor, football player, raccoon, 1700s boy, shark, unicorn, skeleton, cowgirl, detective, meditator, marathon runner, devil, angel, fisherman, princess, and an artist. Some of the kawaii animals include a bunny rabbit, seal, cat, mouse, rat, parrot, dragon, dog, bird, fish, alien, bear, bee, horse, worm, porcupine, bat, and a turtle. Easy Peasy. Chibi characters are known for their huge expressive eyes, larger heads, and smaller proportions (baby-like). The Kawaii critters that are part of many of the drawings are easy to doodle and are part of what makes this style so much fun to learn how to draw. Drawing Chibis is a perfect stepping stone for aspiring Manga / Anime artists. Rachel has been teaching kids how to draw for almost ten years now, and this drawing technique really works With this no-tears strategy, learning how to draw is fun for children as young as 5 years old, but also works for adults and teens. Cartooning is fun for kids, but even more fun when it comes easy to them. This book does just that...makes drawing fun and easy for kids. This book will turn your child into the artist that he or she wants to be. Each cute Chibi drawing lesson is a step by step process. Each tutorial is broken down into the simplest of steps that can be followed by most children. Your child doesn't need to know how to read or write letters to follow these drawing lessons. In fact, even young children can enjoy this book. The only thing your child needs is time and interest. This book is for both boys and girls, and is good for kids of most age ranges, but is best for kids aged 9-12 - but if your kids are 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, etc, they will all have fun trying these drawing tutorials out. Have fun drawing the day away Let the Chibi / Kawaii drawing and doodling start now Just an FYI. This book teaches your child how to draw Chibi / Kawaii characters, animals, and things that we created. It does NOT teach your child how to make up their own Chibi / Kawaii characters.
