4.0 out of 5 stars Very useful basis for college illustration projects and on how to structure ones own stories.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 12, 2014
Verified Purchase
I am a student illustrator and found this book very useful for college projects. Because the author understands how books should be written with illustration in mind, she was able to give useful tips, without being didactic. It also gave me food for thought on how I might structure my own stories later. But at the moment I need to concentrate on the storyboards, roughs and illustrations, so very useful indeed to have some good bases for these.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 11, 2016
Verified Purchase
I was a bit disappointed in this book - it's tiny and the space for drawing is very small. Of course all the measurements are there but I should have realised it was an A5 book. Not really fit for purpose.
