Drawing with Auntie Robyn,
Volume 1: Fairytale Friends
This colouring book is a compilation of a few of the greatest hits from a weekly online drawing class I’ve hosted since June 2020. Interactive pages feature the most prevalent concerns of my particular group of 4-6 year-olds: fairies, butterflies, mermaids, princesses, pegacorns, dragons, griffins, and a self-portrait. The book is printed single-sided because it’s the worst when marker bleeds through onto the image on the back of the page!
“This is the one I was looking for. It’s so beautiful. She’s walking on a rainbow and it looks like she’s wearing slippers.”
—Leigh, age 5
“Mama, can you help me?”

“So the teenager got invited to a club that includes diamonds so they gave her the bracelets and they cut a hole in her forehead for the diamonds to fit in and it didn’t even hurt her a tiny bit and then they fit the diamond in then gave her diamond earrings cuz she had her ears pierced and those little swirls were the magic.”
—Milly, age 6
