Art makes the world go round!
The Discovery of Anime and Manga is the first English children's book on these topics.
Dao is an adorable red panda who can travel back in time and place! He befriends the curious kids Ethan and Emma and transports them in the blink of an eye to Asia. Together they (and appreciative readers) have fun discovering how some very cool creations were invented there. If only every school field trip was like this!
In their latest adventure, the trio return East to see how Japanese comics and animation came to be! Based upon the traditions of drawing and painting, these art forms spread across mass media. Famous creators drew cartoons in newspapers and magazines, then books and comics. Iconic characters dazzled audiences in film and television and then home video and the internet. Together anime and manga swept across the world of entertainment!
