An easy, fun, step-by-step drawing book for anyone (child or adult) who loves to doodle. The emphasis is on simplicity and fun.

Really? You have time to color? Somehow, while most responsible grownups were busy at their jobs, raising their kids and trying to pay their bills, coloring books for adults became wildly popular. Today's coloring books are supposed to provide stressed-out adults with a way to "unplug" and relax. But everyone knows that while they're sitting around playing with their colors, important stuff is not getting done. And it's piling up. But a trend is a trend so let's do this. Here is a coloring book for adults who really have way too much other stuff to do.

Know a young person (or grownup) who loves to draw? If so, they're going to love this book. 80 pages of easy to follow, step-by-step instructions for drawing jets, prop planes, helicopters, even a drone. But that's not all. This book also contains a photograph of each aircraft and tons of specs including it's weight, length, top speed and mission. That would be a lot more than most books offer but here's what REALLY sets this book apart: There's a QR code for every aircraft. If you use your smartphone to click on the QR code (you'll need to download one of the many free QR code reader apps), you'll be taken to video of that aircraft in action! You'll see aircraft refueling in mid-air, watch them takeoff and land and make fly-bys near ships and airports. It's absolutely incredible. Does your young artist want more information? He or she will find links in the back of the book to sites about military aircraft history, the future of aircraft and so much more. This is a whole new take on drawing books and it's one your young artist or future jet pilot will love.
