She wishes it were more detailed.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Wanted More AnimalsBy SansThis is a gift for our grand daughter. She loves to draw and is very good at it. I wanted instructions more in the animal line rather then lots on drawing people. but it is a good book. The instructions do have a lot of how to on various tools of the trade which I think she will get bored with but thats okay if she even picks up a little from it. Im sure it will give her ideas of things to draw.
