Budding Anime Artists Start Here

Nice and simple, without too much information all at once, this how-to-draw book is a great start for younger kids, 6-10. It sets up the right drawing habits, starting from basic shapes and lines and "building out" the image from rough to polished. Much like writers have several drafts, so do illustrators and animators. This progressive process is essential to good drawing. If you are older than 10, or if you have finished this book and are ready for the next level, I recommend the Tezuka series 1 and 2 Animation books, if you are interested in animation or Christopher Hart's Anime Mania for more drawing techniques.
