Cartooning: The Only Cartooning Book You'll Ever Need To Be The Artist You've Always Wanted To Be (ART FOR KIDS)

Cartooning: The Only Cartooning Book You'll Ever Need To Be The Artist You've Always Wanted To Be (ART FOR KIDS) by Roche, Art. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781579906238.

Any child who can make a stick figure can learn to create funny cartoons--and this enjoyably illustrated guide tells them exactly how. Written by professional cartoonist Art Roche, it gives kids lots of hands-on opportunities to turn their creative ideas into delightfully drawn reality. The emphasis is on doing original illustrations and developing a personal vision, rather than tracing or copying someone elses style; after all, cartooning is a free and fun form, so theres no "wrong" way to draw one. Roche also includes plenty of information that other childrens how-to books overlook, including advice on writing jokes, composing panels, and getting published. In short, it addresses every step of the process, from buying a pencil to seeing the cartoons in print.
