Book Synopsis

Do you love tough monster trucks or speedy dirt bikes? Whatever your favorite car, truck, or motorcycle, you'll soon be drawing these machines like a pro with the help of this fun book. Just follow the steps and you'll have a great-looking vehicle before you know it. Fact-filled descriptions accompany the drawings, so you can learn all about different cars, trucks, and motorcycles. You'll also find tips on adding details to your drawing - like a driver and a number for an Indy car or stacks and mirrors for a semitruck. So get out some paper and grab a pencil. Then get ready, get set, and get drawing!

Children's Literature

Kids love to draw. The great thing about drawing is that it only requires the most basic of tools that are readily available: paper and pencil. This series, "Ready Set Draw!" includes titles that are guaranteed to be popular with kids of all ages. Sample topics include horses, dogs, cats, cars, trucks, and motorcycles. What makes this series unique among the literally hundreds of "how to draw" books are the color-coded lines and shapes illustrating the proper sequence for developing each drawing. This mimics how artists draw and helps build a solid foundation for drawing skills. Each completed drawing as shown in the book is a fully colored image placed on a photograph, putting the object or animal in an appropriate environment. This encourages young artists to use colored pencils to finish their drawings and provides an image to use as reference. In this volume about trucks and motorcycles, readers learn to draw a convertible, a monster truck, a Ferrari, a dirt bike, and a Jeep among others. Reviewer: Kristin Harris
