You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below

Step 1

Start like you would an actual book – with the first page. Draw three curved lines to outline a wavy rectangular section. Notice that the top and bottom lines of the page are roughly parallel and that the edges of the page are roughly aligned.

Step 2

Draw a line from the bottom of the page, to the top, outlining the spine or spine. Then let the line continue to form the top of the next page. Use two more curves to completely wrap the page.

Step 3

Draw more pages below these. Use curves to outline rectangles partially covered by the first pages. Notice the line where two of the pages come together at the nape.

Step 4

Draw a rounded triangle at the base of the spine. In opposite corners, draw a series of overlapping curves to represent the page angles. Then connect the corners and spine using a series of nearly straight lines.

Step 5

Extend short straight lines from the spine and connect them with a curved line. Then, draw lines almost parallel to the last line, connecting the corners to the spine. This outlines the cover of the book.

Step 6

Detail page edges. Draw curves from the spine to the corner. Use two curved lines, connected with a “V” shaped line, to form a marker ribbon. Delete as needed.

Step 7

Draw curves of different lengths from spine to corner to texture the page edges.

Step 8

Draw a series of curved lines through the corner. Then draw lines of different lengths on the remaining page edges.

Step 9

Draw curves of different lengths across the pages to indicate the presence of writing.

Step 10

Color your cartoon book.
