So we ordered a few more, based on the topic of the book (great artists, rainforest, furry friends). I failed to realize this is a book that already has the patterns printed on the black scratch & sketch surface. So there is a WHITE pattern on the black page, and when the pattern is scratched away it reveals the glitter beneath. This, to me, blows the whole point of these books.calling this an art activity book is like calling connect the dots or a coloring book art. The description of the book does say there are white
patterns that, when removed, reveal the shiny colors beneath.i didn't take the time to read that, so I'm not slamming the book with a one star rating. I just want buyers to realize what they are getting--and if you're like me, you're more likely to read reviews before full descriptions of products.if you've got a little one who wants to play along while big brother or sister is doing his or her art, then this is the book for you. If you have a budding artist who likes to dabble in the scratch & sketch medium, pass on this one. My 6 year old artistic daughter LOVES the Furry Friends Scratch and Sketch book! There are outlines for her to follow, which she likes better than some of the other versions that expect you to copy the picture free-hand. She enjoyed them so much we bought some for some of her friends, too! I was surprised to see that the scratch pages already had images on them. We had another of these books and it was fun for the kids to be able to look at the left hand side, and try to copy it on their own on the scratch side. My 3 year old even tries it- but in this book, all she does is scribble out on top of what they have already scratched-leaving just a big mess. I will be more careful next time to make sure the book is how I want it! My grandkids (and their parents as I see them drawing on these too) love these books. For the younger ones I prefer the pages that already have designs/figures similar to a coloring book on them to color in. Some of the Scratch and Sketch books do not have this coloring book designs and are black blank pages so note if the one you purchase does or has printed designs. The 13 years and older children prefer to do their own artwork designs and there are sketch books for them as well. I bought these to amuse the children on the airplane and later church and it worked great! They were busy, quiet, and happy drawing. A pencil type tool is included (just no lead in it). They loves to see what color is underneath the black. Plus there are a LOT of choices to choose from. Again note some have the coloring book designs and others are blank pages. My 8 year old loves these scratch books. Some of them require you to draw your own picture entirely for scratch which is great, but not for beginners. This book has a picture and some words to the left and on the right you'll find a black page with a picture made with a gray line. In the photo you can see this line is rainbow colored. You'd have to scratch along the gray line to get this effect. My daughter likes to trace the picture and then draw doodles around the edges or markings on the
animals (collars, hearts, etc... I'll read the reviews more carefully next time! We had a scratch and sketch book that had blank pages next to an image where then image could then be drawn freehand. This Furry Friends book has the picture already imprinted onto the black pages and my daughter thought you were supposed to color them in, then she read the instructions on the back that you were supposed to scratch off the white parts to reveal the colors underneath. That seems pretty uncreative and lame to me, but she still liked it. I'll stick to finding the books without the drawn images next time. Lovely, I bought if for my little niece and she loves it. Great paper quality (since you can draw on it). It gives you little facts about different pets. It comes with a pencil to scratch the black (ink?) and then a colorful pet is revealed. So cool! See some images below. The last pages are blank for you to draw (or write) something on it. I really like this. Due to the name (Scrathc and Sketch) we thought you'd be able to draw your own animals in this book. You can't. They have animals that are already drawn and all the kids have to do is scratch them off to reveal the colors. Our 9-year-old still enjoyed the book, but it wasn't what we expected and the name is a bit deceiving.
