Draw Princesses in 4 Easy Steps: Then Write a Story
Written by: Stephanie LaBaff
Illustrated by: Tom Labaff
ISBN 978-1-4644-0011-7
If you have ever been interested in learning how to draw fairy tale characters, then this is definitely the book for you. The title leads you to believe it is only about learning how to draw princesses, but actually the book shows you how to draw other things as well. If you are interested in learning how to draw a princess, then you will also want to learn how to draw her shoes, crown, throne and many other things that you would see in fairy tales. Each one of the drawings begins with the basic outline of the shape. More and more details are added in each of the steps. I am not an artist, so I didn't find the steps "easy". There are very few written directions - which allow the artist to make it their own.
The second part of the book gives you directions on how to write a story in 5 easy steps that will go with your drawing. For those writers that sometimes have problems getting started, they have provided several story starters.
I have found this book to be one of my 1st graders favorite books to go to when they have time to draw - especially the girls!
Enslow Publishers provided me with a complimentary copy of this book.
