Mejor Dilo con Monos is a book for anyone wanting to find the courage to lose their fear of drawing through simple, useful, practical strategies and methods. Through a happy, friendly voice full of ‘intellectual,’ ‘zen,’ and ‘hipster’ moments, Fran Salomon takes us on a deeply personal journey through her own story of overcoming fears and existential anxieties, explaining the benefits of building the visual-thinking muscle to communicate effectively with others — through drawing concepts (a.k.a. visual metaphors), mind maps, and the art of storytelling.
