I finally had the chance to look at this book and it's just as good as I'd hoped. I will definitely be adding it to my personal library. I may be biased as "My Neighbor, Totoro" is my favourite Miyazaki/Studio Film, but this is a gorgeous book. It contains early concept art by Miyazaki, original cell art from the film, and lots of storyboards, and beautiful background paintings. For anyone who has seen a Ghibli film will know that the settings always stand out on a technical level rarely seen in other animated features, so it was nice to see those in print. I can't wait to take a look at the other "Art of..." books of Studio Ghibli films!
