Any books that teach English teachers how to draw for class?
You know, as English teachers, especially if we are teaching kids, we are often in the situation where we need to draw something in order to show what we mean. It usually ends up being something like an animal or food or some such thing. Are there any books for English teachers who can't draw well, you know, something that can teach a teacher how to use simple drawing techniques to make a passable image of the most common characters?

Here is probably the easiest one:

but there is a beatiful one that really creates art

The "VSO style" is similar to Andrew Wright's:

IIRC he did a few OUP books on storytelling too, that include the use of drawings.
Or you could just get one of those "How to Draw Anything" sort of books that you see in bargain bookstores; that, or practise/draw a fair amount in your spare time, whilst developing materials (I've posted a few examples on Imageshack of what can be "achieved" if you put your pen or rather your mind to it).
