i bought this book with another and altho i feel the other takes things back to basics alittle better i did enjoy the read of this book and thought it was very cleaverly put together. any child or young teen will connect with the way this book is written thus maybe reading it from cover to cover as its more like a comic book talking to you in person. well worth the money and read.

Title is very misleading
13 Feb 2008
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm not sure how this book could even be labeled graffiti anything. There is nothing graffiti about it. This is a book on how to draw cartoon characters, period. I have been a graffiti artist for over 15 years and the characters in this book aren't even remotely close to being graffiti characters. I bought this book for a nephew of mine who has always been into my graffiti work and I thought he would enjoy it. But, it's a HUGE disappointment.

Good for Kids

Format:Paperback
It should be pointed out that this is a unique book on drawing cartoon characters, not actually making graffiti. My young son particularly likes the skateboard stuff in this book, and he is able to follow along with the step-by-step demonstrations easily. Kids will like this.

THIS IS A JOKEE!!
8 Aug 2007
Format:Paperback
I have no idea why this book is called graffiti style. It has almost NOTHING to do with graffiti. It is just a how-to-draw cartoons book LABELED graffiti style (not graffiti characters, just regular cartoons!). Seriously a pitiful book. Do not buy this book if you are looking for a graffiti book. This is a complete waste of time. As soon as I received the book and took a quick glance at it, I laughed and resealed it back into the box immediately for return. If you bought this book, return it!! Just look how many new&used versions of this book there are. That should give you a good idea of how many people DON'T like this book.
