Kawaii Doodle World: Sketching Super-Cute Doodle Scenes with Cuddly Characters, Fun Decorations, Whimsical Patterns, and More by Zainab Khan, Pic Candle

4.0

I often like these types of books because it gives my un-artistic self a step-by-step guide for ideas on how to make simple, but cute character art. I would recommend this for beginning artists, adults that want something different from coloring books, and a younger audience that is learning to draw and wants something "kawaii."

The layout and formatting of this book is very nice. It starts like many other craft books- there is a "how to use this book" section along with different types of to use for drawing. The doodles are quite simple and a few variations of shapes are shown. There is a quite a few variations on simple doodles that can help artists change up their work.

While I enjoy looking at the drawings in this book, a lot of it is pretty basic and similar ideas can be found in other books in this series. It is something that I would consider as more of a gift for someone else than as something that I would take constant enjoyment with myself. A great way to see if you are interested in this book is to check out the book preview on Amazon- it has a great preview that really summarizes the book well :)

Thank you Quarto Publishing Group for an advanced e-copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
