Essential Reading for Animators and Animation Enthusiasts - Page 8

A dizzying catalog of books detailing the craft, art, and history of animated films. This list was compiled from a variety of sources, but mostly from GoodReads. I made this list for personal reference but I hope this is helpful for anyone interested in animation :)
