- Soucolor 9" x 12" Sketch Book,Top Spiral Sketch Pad,100 Sheets 68lb Acid-Free Drawing Paper for Pencil Sketching Doodling, Art Supplies Journal for Kids Adults Artists

I purchased this Soucolor 9” x 12” sketchbook as part of a birthday gift for my daughter. My first impression is very positive. The sketchbook arrived well packaged and in great condition. I like that it has a sturdy top spiral binding and plenty of pages, which is perfect for practicing and trying different ideas. The paper feels nice and thick, and I appreciate that it’s acid-free. She hasn’t started using it yet since it’s for her birthday, but I’ll update my review once she begins drawing in it. So far it looks like a great sketchbook for beginners and anyone who enjoys sketching. This is an update, she loves the book, she gave it a thumbs up. See video.

I got this sketchbook for my daughter's art class, and it's exactly what we needed. I originally bought a small, thin one from Walmart that didn't hold up, but this sketchbook is a huge upgrade. The size is excellent — plenty of space for full drawings - and the pages are thick, sturdy, and perfect for sketching, shading, and even light markers. The cover feels durable enough to handle being taken in and out of a backpack every day, and the whole book has a nice, solid feel to it. My daughter was excited as soon as she opened it, and it's already becoming her go-to for class projects. If you're looking for a reliable sketchbook for school or personal art, this one is absolutely worth it. Quality is fantastic for the price!

These sketch books are awesome. They are the real deal! Very sturdy and well made. Easy to use. Heavy duty paper. Great for any budding young artist! Great value! Spiral binder is strong. Thick paper doesn't bleed through.

Our family is full of creative artists, aged ten to 70. Everyone in the house has this sketchbook for a variety of uses. Great value, paperweight is good and doesn’t bleed through. I like that it is bound at the top. Really good price considering the quality and page quantity. Great find for drawing and creative writing, everything. Would recommend for kids and adults.

I am really impressed with this sketchbook. The paper quality is excellent—thick, smooth, and truly acid-free, which makes it great for pencils, markers, crayons, and even light watercolor. The pages don’t bleed through, and they handle water surprisingly well for a sketchbook. Light watercolor or blending does not cause the pages to wrinkle too much, which is a big plus. I also love how portable it is. The size is perfect for carrying in a bag, backpack, or even holding in your hand while traveling. It’s lightweight but still feels strong and durable, making it easy to take anywhere—school, home, or on the go. The spiral binding is sturdy and makes it easy to flip pages smoothly or lay the book flat while drawing. Overall, this sketchbook is well-made, comfortable to use, and definitely worth the price. I highly recommend it for kids, beginners, and even experienced artists!

Very big, paper is fine, a lot of it, too. Only two things is that it arrived a tiny bit damaged , and the cover is too thin for my liking. That aside, decent sketchbook, though I wouldn’t get it if you plan to travel with it . I used paint markers on it and while it’s definitely not for wet mediums, it took it well enough and didn’t bleed much at all. A good sketchbook to have, but I’ve had higher quality ones. Biggest thing in its favor is the size and amount. Good if you wanna draw a lot but not worry about ruining some fancy sketchbook. Worth the money, though I do wish the cover was thicker and it hadn’t arrived a bit damaged.

bought as a gift and was well received, good size and thickness, portable and easy to store in a backpack, good value

This is always my go to purchase when I need to buy a gift for a kid who like to draw. These sketchbooks are reasonably priced and have nice thick paper. Better than regular computer paper but not expensive artist sketchbook quality. Perfect middle ground for a kid artist.

Good sized sketch book
