This is a very basic introduction to cartooning skills and is both suitable for children as well as adults. It takes a step-by-step approach, taking the reader from the simplest drawings to more complicated ones by the close of the book.
Peter Maddocks was an English cartoonist. Maddocks contributed to many of the United Kingdom's leading daily and Sunday national papers with cartoon series such as Four D. Jones in the Daily Express in the late 1950s and early 1960s. He also created children's animated series for the BBC in the 1980s, including The Family-Ness, Penny Crayon and Jimbo and the Jet-Set, and The Caribou Kitchen for ITV in the 1990s. He continued with many more publications through cartoons and short stories.
