My daughter spends a lot of time working on this book. It has lots of fun pages .These scratch and sketch books are such easy and fun crafts for kids or adults. It is not only great for road trips but also if you have to wait in a doctors office for an appointment. Perfect size to fit into Mom's purse for hours of kid fun! It is very relaxing and keeps the attention of children.I would highly recommend buying any of these products. You will be more than satisfied!Can see sticker in photo verifiys I ordered the "furry" animals book. The horse one costs a dollar more. I didn't know it existed and my kid likes horses so I'll probably keep it. But smh...My daughter had one of these scratch & sketch books & was HOOKED. 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 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.Our 6 year old grandson had at least 3 pages finished in this Scratch & Sketch book soon after he got it as a Christmas gift from us! These are really fun for kids! They are also fun for adults, and our son-in-law even bought one for himself after that! :)This already has stuff drawn on scratch pages for you to trace?!? Wanted it to draw on pages, my own stuff. I am 56 years old and love to draw on these pages, not traceI’ve purchased several of these for my children & as birthday gifts for friends & family members. Always a hit & lots of fun!Arrived promptly and well packaged. It’s quite fun for the kids but it’s also fairly pricey. It’s also not got much skill to it - you scratch and it reveals what is underneath.It's a simple scratch art book but my 10 year loves it and the selection of animals included.I brought this for my six year old, but my nine year old was very atrracted to it and wanted a copy for herself and to buy copies for her friends' birthdays. I was surprised that it had such wide appeal, but the pictures produced by scratching off the white outlines are very effective and beautiful.The book is very nice, paper quality is very good my daughter really loves it.Good
