Great Book
I bought this book for my 10 year old son who loves star wars and loves to draw; he hasn't been able to put it down. The book is very explicit and shows you in a very graphic manner how to draw characters, machines, and others. Very good indeed I'm glad we bought it.

Dorling Kindersley Publishers Ltd, 2005
U.S. version is excellent
I believe that this is the U.K. version of the book, and I'm sure it's excellent too. However, U.S. readers should search for "I'm Pregnant", also by Lesley Regan.
