I’m having so much fun working through the tutorials in this book! All of the birds are super cute and I love how there are tutorials that would work with various skill levels, so a beginner like me doesn’t feel intimidated. I’ve really been leaning into checking out drawing books this year and I can’t wait to get my own copy of this one!

absolutely adorable birds and very easy to follow tutorial for me (38) and my kid (7)! a gorgeous range of poses and activities, a wonderful tutorial section including wing anatomy, bird type, and facial expressions

Book that brings you fun. If you want to learn how to draw but don’t know where to start - this book will teach you, in approachable way, how to do it. Fun and simple, colourful and imaginative. Worth your time. For children, teens and adults. Why not?!

There were so many great ideas in this book! I can’t wait to get started drawing some cute birdies now. This book helped me understand basic wing structure and the shapes that create the body of the bird. It also provided lots of inspiration for creating your own designs. I loved the section at the end where the birds were pictures with little props, that’s when things get really fun and the personality of the characters shine.
Thank you for the eARC! I can’t wait to get started drawing!

There are all sorts of cute designs included in this how-to book! The instructions are very clear, and there are pictures included every step of the way. No portion of the process is missing. It was very easy to get started. An excellent edition to an artist's library.

I’m so happy I was able to review this book. As someone who loves to doodle in my free time, the adorable birds and bright colors caught my attention immediately.

The first thing I loved was the sheer variety of birds this book offers. From types of birds, to poses, and even breakdowns of anatomy - you will learn to draw a whole menagerie of truly “kawaii” flying friends!

Secondly, I am an educator and am always looking for books I can leave in my classroom for early finishers. How to draw books are always a favorite, because it combines reading and creativity. Reading this book through an educator’s lens, I was focused on how accessible it would be for the middle school students I teach. My consensus was that they’d be able to follow along very well, and the style of art is right up their alley.

For anyone with basic drawing doodle skills to skilled artists, I think this extremely visually appealing book will be a win for everyone!

A cute and adorable manual for drawing cartoon-stylized birds in various poses, from common pigeon and rooster, to exotic parrots. The instructions are clear and the examples varied and colorful. Drawings aren't complicated to perform. Recommended for children ages 5-10 who are learning to draw and are looking for fun, short, motivating exercises.

Easy to follow! There were a variety of birds to choose from and pages of different bodies, wings, beaks, etc. that you could choose to change up the various birds. Overall, this was cute and helpful!

I am a big fan of Jen's birdie artwork from following her social media account Birdhism. The artwork is just the cutest I've ever seen. I love the way she captures the crazy personalities of our little flooffy friends and shows them in fun but totally real scenarios that any bird owner will relate to. The book is packed with beautifully coloured drawings and each has a step by step guide on how to create them yourself using digital tools. I really love this book and highly recommend it

The most adorable book! We are big fans of drawing books in this house and both my 10 year old and I love to give these types of drawings a go. The instructions were super clear and cute and so many options.
Initially my daughter was afraid she couldn’t do it, but the detailed step by step made it simple and gave great results.
Would definitely recommend

I like the author and artist quite a lot.
This book is cute and helps to learn drawing their style.
It‘s a bit limited, but it does, what it promises. What I liked most is the introduction explaining anatomy in a very simple and easy way.

So cute! Most of the birds are very round (a plus) and some are put into fun situations to draw. If you want to learn a new way to draw very round birds, I definitely suggest this!

This book is really cute. The directions for drawing are very simple. The directions are provided step by step.
There are also a lot of various of birds. I have something to do during boring work meetings that could have easily been an email.
Thank you Jen Budrock and NetGalley.

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. This wasn't exactly what I thought it was going to be, but know I can try to draw some of the birds pictured. Kids and teens will love this.

This might be THE most adorable and THE cutest drawing lessons book out there!
The Kawaii birdies are super adorable!
The drawing lessons are good too, really good. I’d say the book is suitable for most levels of drawing experience, even for beginners. The lessons are bite-sized and easy to follow, each step is clearly outlined and there are ideas on how to customize your art.
The book would be the most perfect gift to any young, budding artist or anyone who wants to try their hand at drawing.

This book is adorable and surprisingly informative.. I love the variety of birds and poses that you can learn to draw them in. I think this would be a great pick for anyone!

Easy to follow instructions that produce adorable results. I like the breadth of birds available to draw and the wide range of extras in the book.

This is about as adorable as you can get. I’m something of an artist, myself, and I enjoy checking out drawing books from time to time. Here, Jen Budrock teaches you step-by-step how to draw birds in the “cute” style of kawaii. There are introductions to each bird and their different makeups, and then we get to do the fun stuff—practice drawing! Budrock makes the process easy, and there are birds by themselves as well as birds doing crazy or funny things (read: skateboarding, hot-tubbing, surfing, etc.). Also included are coloring pages and spaces to draw your own creations. All in all, a fun, educational book that everyone can enjoy.

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group-Rock Point for the complimentary eARC. All opinions are mine alone.

(My personal favorite was Battle Birdie holding a giant cleaver! 😁 Hilarious!)

This is a cute book for those who want to draw kawaii birds. It is in the format of draw these shapes and then erase these lines, which is my least favorite way to draw. The birds are divided into sections like old world, domestic and farm. Some of them look a lot like the birds and others really don’t, since kawaii makes everything chubby and round, and some bird species are just not. There are some real normal bird depictions and then it goes into lots of the typical kawaii drawing book stuff like here’s a bird in a burrito and a different bird in a cupcake and a bird with a giant butcher knife. I personally have no desire to draw birds dressed up oddly as food or doing weird things, but I know I’m not the target audience. The book will be a big help for those who want to make these kinds of scenes.

I read a temporary digital ARC of this book for review.

There are so many cute birdies in this book to learn how to draw and I am so excited to try to draw them soon;
