Norberg & Linden Drawing Set - Sketching and Charcoal Pencils - 100 Page Drawing Pad, Kneaded Eraser. Art Kit and Supplies for Kids, Teens and Adults

My 9 year old loves to draw. I had never bought anything to promote his limited ability. He was very excited to get his art supplies. The paper and pencils is exactly what he needed to excel in his ability He now sketches everything and is getting much better. This has several different type pencils and charcoal. Even has sharpeners. The paper is a good grade and sturdy Price is very reasonable

I bought this item for my 12 year-old daughter. She loved it.

Durable and smooth lead. Easily stores in its own case

Looks like it will be a perfect Christmas gift for my Granddaughter. Came quickly and nicely packaged.

Sketch pad is great. I like the portability of pad and a few of the pencils

Would purchase again

It works and I like what was included.

I wanted to get back in to sketching/shading again after years away and had no tools left in my house, so this was an easy choice. This package is a perfect start up for anyone interested in starting or getting back into pencil drawing, with a full compliment of pencils (soft, semi-soft, hard), and a generous sketch pad that actually has some weight to it. Newcomers may find the selection of charcoal tools a bit intimidating, but theyre a nice bonus and allow more room for play and experimentation. At less than $20, even a hesitant would-be artist should be willing to pay to give it a shot. It is not especially accommodating to the traveler, but its only fair that you would have to pay more for a travel kit and extra packaging to secure the tools for easy transport. But if you just want to have a nice set of tools around the house for easy anytime drawing, this is a cinch.

My 11 y o niece rippped it open and started sketching right away. She loved it!

My grandson (10 years old) is learning to draw. This is an excellent starter kit for him to learn the basics.
