These wonderful, inexpensive books are a great introduction to drawing for young children. The feature that impressed me the most was the ease that beginners experience as they draw realistic figures. Clear, step-by-step diagrams encourage young artists, demonstrating how to produce likenesses of many different subjects, in many different poses. Even adults would enjoy these!
