About this workbook
A comic drawing workbook for kids aged 4 to 10. Children learn how comics work through fun facts and pro tips, try each idea straight away in a drawing challenge, and then use blank strips and layouts to create comics of their own.
Part 1 shares the secret science of comics, like why superheroes wear capes and how sound words such as BOOM and ZAP work. Part 2 gives five tips real comic artists use: write the words first, point the bubble at the speaker, vary your camera angles, use the four types of speech bubble and add motion lines.
