All artwork created by hand
There's nothing more beautiful than seeing the hand of an artist in the work. With this book you'll see every pencil line, every happy accident, every brush stroke. Every mark has a story.
Row Row Row Your Boat uses the traditional, timeless techniques of watercolour painting to bring the illustrations to life with a human touch and give this book a true keepsake feel.
