Review:My daughter is really into anime series and loves to try to draw characters, so I thought this was perfect. I was right, she loves it, takes it with her everywhere she goes and draws instead of playing on her smartphone. Pretty good deal to me!

Review:For those who love Disney, and their animation, this book gives a history of the early days of animation that shaped this empire. The artwork is amazing and I love to look at it over and over. We had a copy of this while our children were growing up that literally fell apart from use. Now we have a new copy to share with our grandchildren. Love it! Read more
