Review: Beautiful book for PN, Laika and Stop-Motion fans! - I don't get a lot of paper books anymore - I have mostly gone digital for the environment's sake as well as my space-saving sake. But this is one you don't want to get in Kindle format. I got my copy for Christmas, so a big "thank you" to my gift-giver for that! The Art and Making of ParaNorman is a work of art itself, with each page having a beautiful artistic background which you will lose with current Kindle formatting, even with your pretty Fires. I've been a fan of stop-motion since Clash of the Titans, Rudolph, etc. It is such a fascinatingly intricate art, and I really admire all the work that goes into the creation of these films. I have been a big fan of Laika since Coraline. If you are into stop motion, or just ParaNorman, you will probably really enjoy this book. It really keeps up with the promise of being an "Art and Making of" book because there are tons of colorful photos of concept art, puppets, the movie, etc., but there are also lots of snippets of text which reveal the creation process behind ParaNorman, and Laika in general. Though they surely could have made a volume 25x the size of this one in order to encompass half of the creation process involved in this film, what you get is pretty meaty for an art book. I added a few pictures, not really to show detail, but to show a rough estimation of art to written content. You will get a lot of both in this great book! Also, you can note the nice formatting in the paper version vs. the Kindle, which at time of writing is the only view offered in the "Look Inside!" feature. Hope this helps! :D
Review: Review - Being a big fan of ParaNorman to start with, I never thought it would get an art book, but here we are, and damn, it's amazing. The concept and production photos are of very high quality and a joy to look at, as to be expected. They're detailed and flow along with the sections. Them alone could probably make a decent artbook. But the real joy of the book in my opinion is reading about the production itself, 'making' being on the cover and everything. All of the sections are broken into parts of production. I read it all in one go. The writing is simple yet engrossing and the LAIKA members have very fun and charismatic input throughout, sometimes heartfelt and personal. I was fairly emotionally invested in it by the end, even with it being an artbook, a type of non-fiction you normally would not expect to. Every department gets their fair share of recognition. It exceeded my expectations The book itself is the normal coffee table size and the quality of the pages are thick and high quality. tl;dr: fantastic

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic!
*by P***E on September 19, 2012*

This book was very well composed and contained a plethora of information, not only about the art of the film, but the process of creating it and the thought behind it. It was incredibly interesting to see how LAIKA studio worked, and it covered all the different aspects of making the film, from the original idea to concept art, from the art to the making of the puppets, and then to all the extra effects and everything in between. The images are gorgeous, and all the concept art and photos of their workplaces are wonderful to see. The writing is also very nice as well, and really helps bring everything together. Very well done! Definitely one of favorite books!
