Author of My Pencil Made Me Do It: A Guide to Sketchnoting </em></p><p><br></p><p>I've been sketchnoting for quite a few years and I thought I knew all I needed to know about visual notetaking. Not so! In her book Visual Impact, Wendi Pillars combines text and visuals to describe the power of using text and visuals to "connect, clarify, and deepen understanding." Part text, part visual explainer, part tutorial, and ALL reference. This is a comprehensive reference on visual notetaking that illustrates (literally!) the many possible applications of this powerful notetaking and communication method. This book is perfect for the beginner as well as the experienced practitioner. An unexpected bonus of Wendi's approach is that she offers many ways for you to show others the benefits of visual thinking and describes how you can bring others along on the visual thinking/communication path. I am glad to add this book to my library of references.</p><p><em>-</em><strong><em>Rob Dimeo</em></strong><em>, Physicist and inveterate doodler</em></p><p><br></p><p>Visual Impact will inspire you and let you into a new understanding of visuals. Wendi shares her gifts with us and lets us in on how and why to use visuals ourselves and with learners of all abilities. I absolutely love referring back to the pages in this book!</p><p><em>-</em><strong><em>Valentina Gonzalez</em></strong><em>, @ValentinaESL Author and Consultant</em></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><br>
