Kids are natural-born artists—a quick look at the family refrigerator/art gallery is all the proof you need. Now here’s a book that channels all of that innate creativity: Incredible Art! Inside this large-format, spiral-bound workbook, budding Picassos will find an amazing array of projects to try, including cool crafts (Pop Art prints, tile mosaics, and an Aztec mask), sketching (animal portraits and crazy cartoons), and other wildly imaginative ideas (potato prints, Viking textiles, and 3-D ocean scenes). Projects are fun and age-appropriate, featuring step-by-step instructions, illustrations, and photographs, as well as helpful “top tip” segments and a “Click for Art” online component. Better toss the pizza coupons to make room on the fridge—with more than 200 awesome ideas, Incredible Art is guaranteed to inspire many new masterpieces.

The titles in the Incredible series are large-format, spiral-bound, fun, and easy to read. Tackling

some of the most popular juvenile topics (animals, machines, and

art), the Incredible series is filled with plenty of visual excitement—

hundreds of action photos and lots of cool graphics—that capture kids’ elusive attention spans. With

helpful glossaries and unique foldout diagrams, the Incredible

books are chock full of fascinating factoids and exciting content

written especially for curious kids ages 7 and up.

A note from Silver Dolphin regarding product quality and safety

Silver Dolphin is committed to creating novelty books that are not only educational and interactive, but above all safe. Nothing is more important to us than the safety of our children, and we employ several checkpoints in our product development process that are designed to protect our most valuable and precious end consumers.

All Silver Dolphin products are tested in accordance with stringent Federal guidelines, which include the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) and ASTM F963. These tests include, but are not limited to, lead, heavy metals, phthalates and other applicable tests. We also utilize a safety testing specialist to review our products and components from the very beginning prior to the manufacturing stage. Before materials or components are sourced, the product is subject to a design evaluation and reviewed for age appropriateness, design hazards and all required testing. Once the product is manufactured, it undergoes final testing at a certified laboratory. These test documents and samples are then reviewed and approved before the product is released into the market.

We understand that as a parent, retailer, or consumer you may have further inquiries, so we are happy to answer any questions about our products or safety testing process. Thank you for your ongoing support.
