Summary: Preston Blair, cartoonist-- the world's proudest title
Comment: I ran across Preston Blair's Advanced Animation in the Walter Foster "how-to" series many years ago. I'm not an animator, but the book was a great influence on my 30-year newspaper career. Every print cartoonist can learn from Blair-- especially the principles of "stretch & squash" and "follow-thru".
I recommended the book to hundreds of beginning cartoonists and used "Advanced Animation" as a textbook in cartoon workshops at the Univ. of Washington, Western Wash. Univ. and Ohio State Univ. I also recommend Preston Blair highly on my present cartoon website.
Rating: 4
Summary: An excellent reference work for animators and students.
Comment: I first found this book several years ago after reading the excellent Disney Animation- The Illusion of Life (Now called The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation) by Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnson. This book covers several topics that the Disney book doesn't, such as lip-syncing. An animation teacher at DeAnza College in Cupertino has made this book a requirement, and I understand why. Don't think of this book as the only instruction you will need to become an animator, but buy a copy of it so you can have helpful reminders about important animation techniques without having to flip through hundreds of pages. This book is an excellent companion to the Disney book.

Summary: Professional Animators Use This Book
Comment: This is the book to own if you want to become an animator! It is extremely helpful in teaching basic cartoon character construction techniques and features lots of information on creating animation.
This book is in most professional libraries and is extremely handy as a reference tool. I recommend it to all aspiring animators and cartoonists and I require it for my classes at The Center For Character Animation in New York. It's Highly Endorsed by this Emmy Award Winning Cartoon Animator!
