Description
A baby bunny, a colorful unicorn, and an adorable snowman are just some of the cute things to draw in this book. With 15 fun drawing projects, I Can Draw: Everything Cute & Cuddly is a collection of some of the most adorable things in the world. All of the drawings are created with simple shapes that are easy for young artists to make, and the cute 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 a cute baby bunny:
- Kids start with a circle, 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 multiple steps, all the new pencil marks to make are shown in a different color 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 a bunny rabbit appear on their paper, and all they need to do now is add some color.
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. The books in the I Can Draw series provides the perfect introduction to drawing for budding artists.
Have even more drawing fun with: I Can Draw: Wild Animals, I Can Draw: Favorite Pets, I Can Draw: Cats & Kittens, and I Can Draw: Dogs & Puppies.

Beautiful, clear, and easy to follow step-by-step instructions to help children (and adults) make wonderful creations. I appreciated the variety of items and animals in one single book. This would be a wonderful addition to any personal or school library.
This is a superb introduction to art, for young artists. The book shows easy to read, step by step lessons, which introduce the reader to art tools, and a description of how to use basic shapes, such as triangle, circle, square and rectangle, in order to draw cute and cuddly animals easily. My daughter and I have had a lot of fun drawing animals from the book, such as a bunny and a unicorn. She really loves this series of books, and she gets really excited every time I show her a new book from the series. She has been busy drawing lots of animals from all five of the books that we have so far! Her favourite animals to draw from this series are cats and bunnies.
Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
As with the other books by Emily Fellah on drawing, this one provided not just simple, easy to follow instructions and illustrations, but all the drawing can be completed with nothing more than a pencil, eraser, paper, and some colors. There are even a mermaid and unicorn, not to mention a robot. Since there are some llamas up the road from me, however, that was the one I tackled first. Children should have fun being creative with the colors, in particular, and perhaps even adding onto the drawings as they gain in confidence. So much the better if an adult is willing to draw along with them, too. Let's just say that I have personal experience of how much entertainment these can provide during an extended power outage. Children can use their imagination and create their own worlds using not just these simple instructions but perhaps drawing from other books in the series. Seriously, you don't need the book set but you want it. Insert smile emoji. Perhaps a zoo with a robot watchman, or maybe that mermaid has populated her undersea world with some interesting cute and cuddly critters.
Bottom line, this book, like the others in the series, can provide hours of joyful entertainment with minimal supplies, This one should definitely be on your shelf.
Thanks to #NetGalley and #QuartoPublishing for the ARC and fun diversion during a lengthy power outage.
I Can Draw! Everything Cute & Cuddly is a delightfully useful line drawing activity book for youngsters. Due out 8th Feb 2022 from Quarto on their Walter Foster Jr imprint, it's 32 pages and will be available in paperback format.
The drawings are encouragingly simple and the step by step tutorials are accessible and easy to follow and replicate. Each of the 15 drawings has a tutorial series with steps to follow and some simple tips for adding color. All of the tutorials included are popular and fun. They're all cute and recognizable and it will be easy for anyone to follow. The subjects include a plush bunny, unicorn, koala, yeti, robot, kitten, snowman and several others. This book is part of a series with lots of how-to books with the same format.
Great selection for a gift for a young artist, perhaps with some added sketch pads and pencils. This would also make a superlative classroom or library book. I would also recommend this book to babysitters, grandparents, parents, and basically anyone who spends a fair bit of time with small kids in order to up their 'draw with me' game. I really enjoyed this (and managed to recreate a credible robot myself - very very cute (but not really cuddly)).
Five stars. This is a fun activity book and will provide hours of quiet play.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
Fun, easy to follow drawing book for beginners. I have a child that is just starting to get into art and this is exactly what we have been looking for. We are planning to try all versions of this drawing series.
Really cute book on drawing cuddly things like teddy bears, robot, yeti, koala and some others, the shapes are simple to draw and can be decorated in different ways to add interest.. It is only a small book of 30 pages, but it certainly has a lot of information and projects to learn from.
Great for kids of all ages, and adults can also get some fun out of this book.
My daughter is 8 and we both lkved this book. She enjoys drawing but gets frustrated if her pictures do not turn out how she pictures them.
Everything cute and cuddly give clear, step-by-step instruction on how to create the pictures in the book. The pictures are exactly what an 8 year old wants to draw.
Have to admit I also had fun drawing some of the pictures. As adults we can forget how calming and fun art can be. This is a great book for the whole family.
