Review: This is the best one - As a beginner I got more than 10 books of this matter and trust me when I tell you, this one is the best you can find! A lot of examples, real step by step images, HUGE library of eyes, noses etc etc and text that tells you a lot, yet it's written easy with minimum words needed, simply perfection from the authors!
Review: Professional, Practical, Amusing - I've bought many 'how to' cartoon books and this one is the best. It may be old in age and style but it teaches cartooning from a professional and practical point of view, but at the same time readable and amusing. I'm constantly refering to it whilst most of my other cartooning books remain firmly on the bookshelf. Thanks Jack Hamm!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An encyclopedia of cartooning techniques for beginners
*by K***L on 4 September 2009*

I used to draw cartoons all the time as a child but gave up for twenty something years. Now as an adult I want to develop my skills properly. I have trouble getting past the first few pages of this book because I end up wanting to pick up my graphics tablet or pen and paper and start trying out new ideas. It is a very inspiring book as the reader can see how even the most impressive cartoons can be drawn from their principle components. The author mixes up many different cartoon styles so that you can pick and choose according to your own ability and taste. I can imagine that even if I were to be an accomplished cartoonist then this book would be useful to for getting myself out of a rut. For example, want to draw eyes? There's 135 different eyes listed on page 4. 156 mouths on page 5. Although the talent behind the cartoon is quite awesome, it is not intimidating because you can see how the cartoons were made. I wish I knew of this book when I was a child, I might not have given up.
