1: A great guide to cartooning!
My daughter absolutely loves this book and it improved her cartoons right away! I like the variety of different possible features presented. This is a beatiful, very well done book.

2: GREAT BLEND OF INSTRUCTION AND INSPIRATION
This is unlike any other cartooning book past or present. Too many cooks of this genre show you the standard "draw an oval and a triangle and now you have a duck!" or "draw like I do!" instructions. Art Roche's book teaches kids to think, to imagine, to be funny. Art gives readers the tools to pursue their styles, not his. It's an easy read, full of great illustrations, and humorous examples. Art Roche makes anyone from from 4 to 84 want to pick up a pencil and have fun! Great gift for any kid or kid at heart.

3: Art For Kids: The Only Cartooning Book You'll Ever Need to Be tThe Atist You've Always Wanted To Be
Beautiful Book. Purchased for my 9 year old grandaughter as a Christmas Present. She loves to draw and wants to be a cartoonist. I know she will love this book. So easy to understand!

4: Sharpen those pencils
My 12-year-old picked up this book and devoured it in one sitting, reporting it helped him conquer some of the problems he had encountered as a recreational cartoonist. He especially enjoyed the section devoted to writing.
This is a gorgeous book - hardcover with color on every page. Great art, lively text, and very inspiring - it works as both a "how-to" and personal cartooning cheerleader.

5: Art Roche: God of Cartooning and Rock & Roll
You want to draw cartoons? Why wait? Start learning the important fundamentals from one of the best in the biz. A giant among pygmies -- that's Just the Way It Is (and Bruce Hornsby agrees with me, so there!)
Why spend more money learning some OTHER system that will only result in your work looking like everybody elses? Do you really think someone is going to pay you to draw so-so copies of Japanese Anime? Get real, Get this book, shmucko. With a little effort (we remember effort, right?) and dedication, the sky's the limit.
Do the right thing and start tuning in to what makes you unique -- after all, we can SELL that!!! Roche is the Real Thing, and his work speaks volumes. Your eyes don't lie to you, and neither will Mr. Roche.
