Learn a Few Anime Drawings
If you've ever considered drawing anime or manga yourself, this book could help you get the basics of doing female faces and figures down. In a one-page introduction, the author highlights the specific distinctions that make anime drawing different from other types—the details that it focuses on and other preferences. The rest of the book is 16 illustrations that are given step-by-step. While they are mostly women, there is one animal and one couple. The author was able to well capture some moody looks that you see in anime. I think that sometimes there was too big of a leap between steps, especially for someone non-artistic like me. But it was still fun to give them a try. I do think this book is geared toward mid-to-late teens and adults. Unless a younger child is already a talented artist, some of the big leaps taken may frustrate him or her between steps. However, if you're older than 14 or 15 or so and have an interest in drawing anime, you might find this book helpful.
I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.

Not Bad. Not Great.
This is a very simple book. Perhaps a good reference in conjunction with other more detailed books. I cannot call it great. Who would benefit from this? Someone who wants to make quick and simple one-off manga characters for friends and not get into too much detail. A good effort, but unrefined. However, any kind of practice drawing faces and figures this way will lead to better things, so as an inexpensive guide, this is not bad imo. -
Not for total beginners
This book requires some drawing techniques like perspective and depth of field that are not intuitive for people that just started learning to draw.
