“The author really does a great job demonstrating how easy (and rewarding!) it can be to draw seemingly ordinary things you (and your little ones!) may feel too intimidated to try drawing without the step-by-step guide! Putting already-known shapes together and making something new and original is a fantastic way to learn! And recognizing that you can add your own twists and personality to your drawings makes all the difference. I think it’s a fun, original approach to building confidence for a lifelong hobby. I have the ebook copy, and can only imagine how great a physical copy would be!”

– Daenarah [Amazon Review]

“There are several of these fun books by this author. My kids and I have had a lot of fun with these. It’s a great activity to do as a family and see how they all turn out. Almost like a sip and paint but more of a juice box and draw.”

Allison B. [Amazon Review]

My kids can’t wait to start drawing these monsters in their illustrations! The many different moods of the monsters appeal to their different personalities. We love the many options, styles, and opportunities to expand upon the characters. Recommended for all ages!

– Kasey [Amazon Review]

“Kevin has put out many books on drawing and animation, and has such a great feel for HOW to explain the process. His art is so expressive and kid-friendly, but his real strength is in his ability to really explain and show how it’s done, making it accessible to kids and adults. I’m a firm believer that not everyone who “can do” can teach, but Kevin does both beautifully! Pick this up and watch kids have a blast making robots of all sorts, while learning great fundamental art skills at the same time!”

Tom R. [Amazon Review]

“My 5yo LOVES this book! The drawings are cute and the instructions are easy to follow along with. She gets a kick out of drawing muffin monsters and ketchup monsters and it actually keeps her pretty focused for long periods of time.”

– Monica [Amazon Review]

“This is a fantastic book for kids who love art, cartoons, comic books, or just having fun! There are a lot of characters to choose from, and really easy step-by-step instructions to follow. You child will have a blast drawing these fun, silly characters! And just in time for Easter baskets!”

– Bestmomever [Amazon Review]

“This is a very good book for kids that want to learn to draw, my sons love it and Kevin does a great job of making drawing fun and not intimidating. Highly recommended for the long summer hours!”

Draw by Grid: Spooky Stuff for Halloween

Spooky season just got more creative! Draw by Grid: Spooky Stuff for Halloween is a fun and beginner-friendly drawing book that teaches kids how to draw their favorite Halloween characters using the classic grid method.

Why Choose the Grid Method?

The grid method is a time-tested way to learn how to draw. Instead of trying to copy a whole picture at once, kids divide it into squares and focus on one square at a time. This makes each drawing less overwhelming, easier to follow, and much more enjoyable. Along the way, children develop:

  • Observation skills – noticing shapes, lines, and proportions
  • Patience and focus – breaking big tasks into smaller steps
  • Drawing confidence – seeing their skills improve page by page

A Perfect Halloween Activity

Draw by Grid: Spooky Stuff for Halloween makes a great seasonal activity book for kids who love to draw. It’s perfect for:

  • Classroom and art projects
  • Halloween parties and events
  • Screen-free fun at home
  • Building artistic skills while celebrating the spooky season

Kids can complete their drawings and then color them in for double the creative fun. By the end, they’ll have a whole collection of Halloween artwork that they made themselves.
