highly recommended

From the hit-makers at Pixar Animation Studios who brought us Buzz Lightyear, Nemo, and Mr. Incredible, now comes Remy, the furry star of Ratatouille. A lovable rat (yes, a rat!), Remy is driven by his passion for fine cuisine to become a chef against all odds and with madcap adventures along the way at the most famous restaurant in Paris. The Art of Ratatouille includes more than 200 of the artistic ingredients in this heartwarming film: storyboards, full-color pastels, digital and pencil sketches, character studies, maquettes, and more. In this exclusive movie tie-in book for adults, effusive quotes from the director, artists, animators, and production team reveal the genius at work inside the studio that changed cartoon heroes forever.

Very nice book

The Art of Ratatouille didn't disappoint me, because it really reveals the artistic thoughts which determined the visual concept of the movie. The reader gets an insight into the artists conceptions and the accurate research that was needed to achieve a very rich and believable look. After reading the book I respected the movie even more, it was good to see how careful they planned everything to have something really valuable.
This is a very nice edition with beautiful illustrations in it.

Readers have different kind of expectations, that's why it's earful to mention, that this book shows most of all the ART of Ratatouille, so it is recommended for those who would like to know more about that.

What a GREAT film and book!

Nice to see a few things included from my pal ALBERT LOZANO! GREAT stuff!

Great Pre-production book!!!

Even if you didn't like Ratatouille (I don't see why) you can appreciate this book. It is filled with amazing artwork for the film; storyboard, concept sketches, background paintings, color keys, and my favorite concept maquettes/sculptures of the characters. The character sculptures by Greg Dykstra really blew me away. Amazing stuff! Worth the price of the book alone! If you are an artist, animator you can't go wrong with purchasing this book. Artwork is beautiful if not short of brilliant. Some amazing talent at Pixar, who made an amazing film (and still going strong). Very inspiring book!! Not only has the artwork but talks about how Ratatouille came to be.

Awesome book

This is a really beautiful book with heaps of pre production drawings, pastel paintings, sketches and designs. Also has photographs of ideas the artists used for their paintings and interesting commentary. I really recommend it. Some of the early concept sketches of the rats made me laugh.
