Biographical Note: "In this everything-is-possible guide to drawing, a buoyant, conspiratorial voice invites all ages to experience the simple joy of making marks on paper." --STARRED REVIEW, Booklist "An inspirational primer on the art of drawing showing how the art form is for everyone." --School Library Journal "Haidle's illustration style is unusual, combining human and animal forms, visual sequences, and humorous depictions of abstract concepts. This comprehensive introduction provides much fodder for artistic growth and experimentation." --The Horn Book " Drawing Is . . . promotes an inclusive, purposefully unintimidating approach by focusing on the process rather than the product, and offers all the encouragement that anyone who blinks, breathes, and reads -- or listens to someone reading -- might need to open a sketchbook and give drawing a try!" --Shelf Awareness "[F]rom the very first page, it challenges young (and older) readers to think about what it means to use your imagination in a visual form. . . . [T]his is one of the best, most complete, books on the subject I have seen, a truly essential work." --Imaginary Elevators Publisher Marketing: An inspiring and affirming book on drawing and how to think about drawing, for kids and all curious humans ages 8 and up.
