Some people will find that this would not suit their needs though. First, it has the appearence of a coloring book more than a how-to book. Most how to draw books show color (similar to the cover). These pics are black and white, uncolored and unshaded. Second, for a person who can not draw and wishes to actually learn I can't imagine that happening from this book.

The pics are done in stages with some how-to information but for a person who actually wants to learn how to draw I can't imagine them even being able to know how to get to step one from this book. That said for someone with some drawing skill the steps in how to get to a finished picture will be helpful.

My son likes this book but uses it more for tracing the figures than to actually free-hand them. When he is done tracing he will add features or change certain things and than color them. I think this would be a great adjunct book for a child who enjoys the Dragonball Z theme but as a *how to* book there are many that are much better.

not a bad book, although it doesnt really show you in detail how to draw them. on each page is a 5 stage walkthrough on how to draw the character, although it sounds good in reality its poor, the poses arnt exciting and the walkthrough is just a bunch of pictures with no text about preportion. there are only 5 or so characters to draw and the book is short but none the less fun to draw.
