What a beautiful day today I took a afternoon trip to Kinokuniya. Kinokuniya is a book/music/stationary store chain that is filled with Japanese goodies like these adorable pens that i bought today. I wish i had more money to buy all of the manga art books I saw. When I was around 13 i loved this store and went to it all the time to browse all of the manga in English and Japanese! I have not been there for a while and i forgot how much i enjoy it!

This book Let's Draw Happy People (Illustration School) is just what it sounds like . Its filled with simplified illustrations lots of tutorials for those of us who are young at heart. This book would be a great gift for a preteen who is interested in drawing.
