OK, #kidlit illustrators, help me shop for Christmas! My nephew (8) likes drawing, so I want to get him some art supplies and a book or 2. I’d like to find something that helps him build core skills. Or are the How to Draw X books just as good? (He’s a bit of a perfectionist when following videos.)
