Good instruction, material list needs numbering though.

A fun although basic guide through the art of cartooning - I learned some (but not much) and my theory is that even if you only learned one thing then the book was worth reading so I would say that I'm glad I read this and used some of the ideas and tools but still rather a basic guide.

Recommended for the beginner.
