An extraordinary, evocative investigation into the legacy of the controversial one-child policy across all of Chinese society
This ingenious, full-colour book brings together drawing projects and fun facts. Young readers will love learning about animals, transport, history, and more as they grow in artistic confidence. The simple, step-by-step instructions in this book have been carefully designed to make drawing easy, accessible, and undaunting. Each project features nine steps, with each step introducing a minimal amount of the new strokes. These are accompanied by intriguing ideas about the person, machine, or animal that readers are drawing. • As they sketch a tiger''s stripes, they can learn why tigers need stripes. • While they are drawing a neanderthal, they can think about the tools that they used.• While drawing a space craft, they can discover how rockets move. This book really puts the "art" into "smart!" Ideal for children aged 6+.
