Review: 

This lovely and engaging book presents 30 drawing projects (of mostly religious subjects) in an easy-to-follow step-by-step fashion so that even very young children can gain confidence in their drawing skills and enjoy making beautiful decorations for holy day decorations, greeting cards and more.

The projects included are as follows:

Sacred Heart of Jesus Immaculate Heart of Mary Rose Rosary Bethlehem Chalice and Host Bouquet Bow Nativity Lamb of God Monstrance Mother Mary Child Jesus Praying Boy Praying Girl Altar Cherub Crucifix Baby Jesus Saint Joseph Jesus, Our Savior Our Lady of Fatima Angel Our Lady of Guadalupe Risen Christ Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha Good Shepherd Saint Francis of Assisi Saint Therese of the Child Jesus Holy Spirit

Several of the projects also include more advanced steps for more eager young artists. An appendix offers a number of smaller pictures to decorate the larger projects - including birds, butterflies, flowers and more.

The spiral binding is much appreciated because the book lies perfectly flat, leaving the artist with both hands to work on his project.

This is a completely new book from Catholic Heritage Curricula's previous book with the same title.
