About the author

Louie Stowell started her career writing carefully researched books about space, ancient Egypt, politics, and science, but eventually she lapsed into just making stuff up. She likes writing about dragons, wizards, vampires, fairies, monsters, and parallel worlds. Louie Stowell currently works as the publisher of Ladybird Books and lives in London with her wife, Karen; her dog, Buffy; and a creepy puppet that is probably cursed.

Ein Buch, das Spaß macht: Fein erklärt, ohne belehrend zu sein. Viele Beispiele als Anregung für eigene Ideen. Übungen für Anfänger und Tipps für Fortgeschrittene. Und Aufkleber mit Spechblasen und Soundwords im Anhang.

I bought the Chinese version. My daughter is 6 years old and she drew her comics after I read several chapters for her.

I bought this book for one of my grandchildren who loves drawing comics. Thought I would have a quick read through before I sent it to him and couldn't put it down!
Great lively drawings and colours throughout
Also over 130 stickers to use in your own comics
Perfect for my grandson and a good read for me also
I learnt a lot and there were things in this book that all writers could learn from
So worth buying
