The new Draw & Write books are designed to give your child drawing lessons that integrate with his history studies. Each picture is broken down step-by-step, then presented in full color. Each picture also gives a copywork story based on the event pictured. In D&W Middle Ages & Renaissance your student will learn to draw a Viking ship, a castle, a knight, a catapult, a princess, a samurai, a greyhound and more. My 11 year old daughter enjoyed these. (Ages 8+) Retails for $12.50.
