Even though this book is meant for kids, I bought it anyway. I'm 16 and I really want to be an animator when I'm older, and surprisingly this book really helped me learn to draw all the "Little Mermaid" characters on my own, and helped me get a basic grasp of the cartoon anatomy. I have all the books in this series and I LOVE them all, they really helped my cartooning skills & they're fun to use as well.

Hi, This book is terrific. I must say I bought it because I have known the author for years. I went to Japan and gave it as a gift, signed of course.

For those of us who want to draw, but have little or no actula experience, this book is invaluable. By going through the fundamentals of the proper procedures of drawing Ariel and her friends, one will be able to achieve artwork that really looks like her, instead of being an incredible simulation. The only drawback is that there are not enough drawings of Ariel, but you get a sense of body position, facial reactions and making the drawing flow. It works for me

It's a bit too short for anybody who really wants to learn how to draw The Little Mermaid at a thin 40 pages. The instructions don't give away anything that you couldn't figure out by looking at screencaps of the movie. If you're reading this, you must have access to a computer, so my advice is to just search for some images of The Little Mermaid and try to draw on your own. For very small children it's probably just fine, but for anyone age 10 and up, this might be a little boring.
