Una gozada
Es un libro que tiene un montón de ejemplos de todo. La única pena es que algunos de los dibujos son muy pequeños. Muy recomendable.

An encyclopedia of cartooning techniques for beginners
I used to draw cartoons all the time as a child but gave up for twenty something years. Now as an adult I want to develop my skills properly. I have trouble getting past the first few pages of this book because I end up wanting to pick up my graphics tablet or pen and paper and start trying out new ideas. It is a very inspiring book as the reader can see how even the most impressive cartoons can be drawn from their principle components. The author mixes up many different cartoon styles so that you can pick and choose according to your own ability and taste. I can imagine that even if I were to be an accomplished cartoonist then this book would be useful to for getting myself out of a rut. For example, want to draw eyes? There's 135 different eyes listed on page 4. 156 mouths on page 5. Although the talent behind the cartoon is quite awesome, it is not intimidating because you can see how the cartoons were made. I wish I knew of this book when I was a child, I might not have given up.
