Scavenger Art
By Lexi Rees
Illustrated by Molly O’Donoghue
Rated: 5 stars *****
Scavenger Art is a terrific activity book for ages 6-12. It really does cater for all of this vast age range in a fun, exploratory way that fits art and questions together in challenges.
This is a little late in the blog tour due to unforeseen home technicalities that could not be left.
Please do go on your own hunt and scroll down to the blurb, review, a bit about the author and media links and also discover buy links within this too.
Thanks to Lexi Rees for the postcard.

Review
Scavenger Art is a beautiful book. The cover is so much fun and whatsmore is that this is an activity book, which is perfect for a Christmas present or a gift at any time of year to keep children occupied. Inside is beautifully illustrated on one side of the page and on the opposite side is a place where to be creative yourself. There are challenges to complete, questions to answer, items to draw.
The challenges cover all manner of topics from clothing to vehicles to buildings to nature to pets, so there really is something for everyone and everything is so relatable to children. There is drawing and writing to be done and each challenge sparks creativity and children will ultimately find it so much fun as they go on a scavenger hunt around their home, the area they live in and through the book, there is a world of possibilities as to how to use this book. Children will be able to do the challenges themselves or with another member of their family.
