With Wild Animals (I Can Draw), young artists can use basic shapes and easy-to-follow, step-by-step projects to draw 15 of their favourite animals. Elephants, wolves, and bears are just some of the animals included in this book. With 15 fun drawing projects, Wild Animals (I Can Draw) is a collection of some of kids' most loved wild animals.

All of the drawings are created with simple shapes that are easy for young artists to make, and the cute, simple illustrations are appealing and approachable to young ones. The book begins with an introduction to drawing materials and instructions on how to use the book, and then it jumps right into the drawing projects.

For an elephant:

  • Kids start with a square, add a line, a curved line, and some more straight and curved lines. They are encouraged to keep following along with each step.
  • As they make their way through the steps, all the new pencil marks to make are shown in red so it's easy to know what to draw next.
  • Once they near the end of the project, these young artists will start to see a drawing of an elephant appear on their paper, and all they need to do now is add some colour.

Great job! Each title in the I Can Draw series features easy step-by-step drawing lessons for little artists. Starting with basic shapes, such as a square, a rectangle, a triangle, and a circle, children will discover how to draw a range of subjects, including animals, butterflies, flowers, pets, and more!

The books in the I Can Draw series provide the perfect introduction to drawing for budding artists.
