Customer Reviews
Sachiko Umoto's illustration books are fun for adults and kids who want to practice drawing without feeling overwhelmed or unprepared. I think they are geared toward kids, but I own all of the books in this series and have thoroughly enjoyed them. "Let's Draw a Story" is a bit different from the others in that it focuses more on how to structure a story, whereas some of the others focus more on how to draw the characters. Don't get me wrong - it is still full of drawing prompts.If this is your first Sachiko Umoto book, I recommend first trying "Illustration School: Let's Draw!" (the set that includes a 3-book complication and a drawing tablet). For new artists, the 'Let's Draw!' set will provide a good foundation. Umoto's art style is deceptively simply (meaning it isn't nearly as easy as it looks to draw these adorable characters.)
