Cute Basic Cat Cartoon Book

This is a great bare-bones book on how to draw cartoon cats in all kinds of interesting poses. I love it. One caveat: the actual content is basically identical to the book, Kids Draw Cartoon Cats, Kittens, Lions and Tigers. Kids Draw Cats, Kittens, Lions and Tigers (Kids Draw) I ordered both, thinking they would be different. They are not. Either book should give you some fun, however. I could wish that the book was longer with more pictures, but that is nitpicking.

Hard To Find Good Cat Cartoon Books

Good cartoon books on drawing specifically cats are hard to find, and this is one of the best. I am currently working on a script with 4 different cat types, and this book has them all, including the tiger! Althouth basic drawing techniques could be improved (he jumps to the finished product quickly), it is still a great teaching tool and a lot of fun.

Great book for anybody who loves cartoons and/or cats

This book really improved my cartooning. I spent many hours with this book and have really improved my drawing. The "Modeling Cats After People" section gave me some great insights into expressing personality. My kids loved it as well. They especially loved the "Cat Characters and Costumes" section. I highly recommend this book.
