I purchased this book for my nephew who was turning 9 on his birthday. I bought it along with a Strathmore Kids sketchbook and some good pencils. I was worried that it might be a little too advanced for him, but that was definitely an unfounded concern. It was perfect, and he was drawing vehicles in no time. The steps are simple and there is a nice variety. I would definitely recommend this as a gift for a young boy!
