Learning to draw has never been so simple!
This is a really nice book for someone who has never drawn Manga style people, and animals, before. It was a nice surprise to find the little section on animals in the back as I hadn't realised that they were there. It contains instructions for full size and chibi people. The pages are colour coded so it's quick to find the section you want. I particularly like the sections on eyes and faces as I've never been great at faces, the instructions are simple, clear and concise. My nine year old enjoyed the book as well although it was a little on the harder side for him but he had a good go and managed a decent looking bird. It's chock full of info though. Well worth the money!
