I was very happy with this sketch book for my 7 year old grandsons birthday. He loves to sketch and this book was a good value for the quality it is.Great I love using it I have two so far this is my to go to for a sketch book I like the paper quality because it can hold up when using sharpie or Copic markers and its very well designed not flimsy at all and its easy to tear out your drawingsIt is great, it does bleed with Copics though. But I love it. The book is sturdy and a good size. It is a bit pricey. But for the quality of the paper and the book it's self, it is wonderful. This is my third time buying this product. I definitely recommend this product.I was a bit hesitant buying this sketchbook as it seems rather pricy for the amount of pages and size of pages that you get. However, I am pleased with my purchase. The pages seem to be of good quality and stand up well to the different media that I apply to it. I've used water color, markers, and even oil without any issues.It came already used, and the first few pages were torn up and covered in charcoal. Disappointed but I need it for class so it’ll have to do.After thoroughly researching art/sketch books, I chose this one for the high quality of the paper and the value. I purchased this for my granddaughter and she was excited about the thicker paper and ease of being able to easily take it with her. Thank you for a great product!Good for sketchingThis is a really nice quality sketchbook and the paper is very smooth and so far non of my markers have bled through paper. I will definitely be buying this again when I fill up my sketchbook.
