Reviews

Grade 1-3-Using combinations of simple geometric shapes, children can draw an unusual array of wheeled vehicles, including cars, trucks, public-service vehicles, and construction machinery. The book begins with an explanation and examples of shapes and methods of drawing circles, including using a compass. The steps are numbered, and each one adds details to the vehicle. Each step is also accompanied by a few explanatory sentences. The last one shows the addition of color to complete the drawing. Because of the preference for geometric shapes, the vehicles have a somewhat chunky or squared-off look, but because of their simple components, drawing them will be less intimidating than drawing the sleeker vehicles presented in Lee J. Ames's Draw Fifty Cars, Trucks, and Motorcycles (Doubleday, 1986).
