    About this ebook

    Have you ever wanted to try illustrating a children's book? To help you do it, here are five picture book texts for you to practise on. Written by an established children's author, the stories cover a range of subject and each one has illustration hints to help you decide what to draw.

    Ideal for artists of all ages, teachers and parents, this book comes complete with wide-ranging permission to use the stories for personal practise and in class. The stories also work well for reading aloud.

    (Please note that this book doesn't contain spaces for your drawings.)
