Watch Me Draw: Dinosaurs

All children love to draw--and now itÕs easy and fun to learn how with the ÒWatch Me DrawÓ series. Each title in the series includes 11 drawing lessons, an engaging story, ÒrewardÓ stickers, and a paper pad with drawing prompts. Dinosaurs features the story of Nate, a little compsagnathus that competes in the Dinosaur Olympics. As Nate goes for the gold, he comes up against an array of different dinosaurs. Kids will learn how to draw all the characters featured in the story, including a flying pteradactyl, a massive sauroposeidon, and a terrifying tyrannosaurus.

The special flip-down paper pad (which is designed to be used while the book is open) is preprinted with 11 unfinished drawings for the child to complete, helping the child become confident with his or her drawing skills. And each page of the story has a place for a sticker that will complete the scene, providing a sense of accomplishment and helping the child track his or her progress.

The History of Walter T. Foster

More than 80 years ago, Mr. Walter T. Foster proved you can accomplish anything you can dream! Having painted signs, sold hog medicine, performed in a stage act -- and invented the postage-stamp vending machine -- Mr. Foster turned to publishing. The "how to" art books he wrote, illustrated, printed, bound, packaged, and shipped on his own soon grew in popularity, and Mr. Foster became well known for proving that anyone can learn to draw. Today the Walter Foster Publishing company carries on the tradition, developing books and kits that encourage creativity and spark imaginations.
