When Andrew gets hold of a pencil, anything can-and does-happen in
this innovative and artistic book. The story literally unfolds
step-by-step as readers are invited to follow Andrew through flaps
and gatefolds. After sharpening his drawing implement on the first
page, Andrew challenges the boundaries of each spread by beginning
with a line that leads . . . and leads . . . to unexpected
finishes. Staircases become dinosaurs, kites become rockets, and
even the most unassuming squiggle morphs into a giant chicken! This
lighthearted depiction of artistic inspiration is sure to engage
doodlers of all ages. Praise for Andrew Drew and Drew "Any question
of reality versus representation is the gentlest kind, utterly
unobtrusive...Joyful imagination, plain and simple." -Kirkus
Reviews "The magic comes from the accompanying artwork, which
follows the eponymous boy and his adventures in drawing... Like a
certain boy with a purple crayon, Andrew knows that drawing offers
limitless possibilities, and readers will, too." -Publishers Weekly
"In this humorous and heartfelt portrait of a young artist, Andrew
models by example the ebb and flow of the creative process."
-Shelf-Awareness "Each page in this cleverly-designed book is
filled with a line, a loop, even a stair step that Andrew has
doodled on the paper, and the beginnings of his drawings often lead
to something that even the artist himself doesn't expect." -Reading
Today Online "The text is spare, with only a few words per page,
letting the products of the boy's imagination and readers'
anticipation of them shine as the focus of the book. Never has
white space seemed so inviting." -School Library Journal "Children
of all ages-especially those with an interest in drawing-will love
exploring the pages of Andrew Drew and Drew. Along the way, they
just might absorb some of the book's message about the power of art
and the joy of creating it." -BookPage AWARDS: GOLD - 2012 National
Parenting Publications Book Awards RECOMMENDED - 2012 Parents'
Choice Awards, Picture Books Noteworthy Titles for Children and
Teens - 2013 Capitol Choices
