LoveReading4Kids Says

Addressing us, the readers, directly, the author of this clever, interactive picture book promises to draw anything we can imagine, except tigers. He’s really bad at drawing tigers.

Cue pages and pages of tigers, drawn in a variety of different styles, and including a grown up’s imagined tiger with a coffee and briefcase. Finally, and with more help from readers, he creates a tiger he’s happy with. And then it’s our turn to have a go.

There’s a final exhortation to have fun drawing, and a very positive end note which explains how making bad pictures is a key part of making good ones. A book all about art and creativity, this is also a joy to read and its message is one we should all take to heart.
