Cartooning For Kids Description
From School Library Journal
Gr 4-6-A brief introduction sets the tone: anyone who remembers that "cartoonists have to THINK FUNNY" can learn to draw cartoons. The rest of the book is divided into two parts. The first gives instructions for drawing 29 animals, arranged alphabetically from alligator to walrus. Starting with an interesting fact or facts about the creature, the author then shows how to draw the head, etc., and develops one pose. Alongside each line drawing is commentary about how to replicate it and why it looks funny that way. The second section focuses on people, describing how to draw bodies of males, females, and babies; smiling and angry faces; hands, arms, and legs; people sitting and moving; and unusual positions. This book is not for beginners as knowledge of some of the basic shapes and positions seems to be assumed, but it exudes confidence.
