I love these pastel art books. This is not a review. I bought the whole collection because they’re so well-done and easy for my kids to complete with very little help. They love making pastel drawings!

Alex drew straight lines. He did amazingly well following directions.

The kids found a bird’s nest and – perfect timing! We have art and science.

The kids watched the tutorial through and we plan to complete our drawings next week.
