I received a DIGITAL Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

From the publisher -

Fun fact: A lot of animals are shaped like potatoes. Another fun fact: Potatoes are easy to draw. Another fun fact: If you can draw a potato, you can draw animals. Master of cute Katie Cook teaches you how to draw everything adorable in her first tutorial book with quick and easy-to-follow step-by-step lessons. All you need is a pencil and paper...or a napkin or a wall, depending on how confident you are in your drawing ability. Learn how to turn curvy blobs, shapes and squiggles into more than 200 different things, including fuzzy animals, cute food and inanimate objects like yarns balls, luggage and a toaster. Add nubbins, swishy bits, and little smiley faces to anything and everything to transform it into something really, really cute. How to draw lots of cats: fluffy cats, non-fluffy cats, cats in boxes, Polaroids of cats on refrigerators How to draw food like ketchup delivery sticks, spicy dragon claws and tiny broccoli trees. Perfect for doodling during class or in meetings and for fans of drawing turkeys from hand outlines (gobble, gobble) or Ed Emberley's super simple drawing instruction books that use shapes, letters and even thumbprints as starting points, Drawing Cute with Katie Cook is a must-own adorable drawing manual, complete with Doctor Who references, fun facts and bad puns. "If you know how to draw a potato, the art world is an open door." --Katie Cook * Don’t worry, there are lots of dog drawings, too!

Katie Cook is a comic artist and writer that hails from the mitten state (as is Michigan, not that she is in the state of being a mitten). She is the creator of the comic Gronk: A Monster's Story as well as working on IDW's smash-hit My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. She has also done work for Marvel, DC, Disney, Lucas Film, Fraggle Rock and many others.

I can paint but I cannot draw --- this helpful book is an invaluable tool to me that I have already pre-ordered as I can now draw animals that don’t look like ink blots designed to play with your mind. It makes drawing easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy through step by step hints. A GREAT book for any art fan, child … or adult like me! (I, too, am smitten with the mitten AND Katie Cook!)
