I borrowed this from the library but will more than likely still buy a copy for my shelves when it’s on sale because I do adore the art featured within the pages!

That said, I wish there was a little more to the written component of this book to discuss the making-of process. I also wish there were more storyboards included.

Oh my goodness, I do love art of Disney books and this movie blew me away with its advances in animation and the art of the movie itself. The first time viewing the movie I had divided attention - the story, the characters, the music, and over and over again my mind would be distracted by the art - the new ways the characters were represented, the realism in the landscape, the details in the clothing, the new palette, the moods created, the amazing work with the elements... and I couldn't wait to go home and order this book. It SO did not disappoint. I always wish the books were longer but this one was magnificent. Lisa Keene's works were instantly recognizable to me and I thrilled with each one... but each animator was amazing as always.. in their concept art, sketches, and digital art.

I’ve always loved seeing the creative side to a film and the “art of” books are always so interesting and inspiring (especially the Disney ones). I loved this one but in comparison to the other books like this, I feel like there wasn’t as much detail and content? This could be because it’s a sequel so there’s not as much to go through in comparison to an original film however.

This was a really fun book to go through, especially as a big fan of the new frozen movie. It's not the most "in-depth" look at the movie, and I feel that a lot of art we see, while beautiful, reflects what ends up on the movie (vs. showing the film when it was in a drastically different stage). However, the art was still fantastic, the layout of this book was beautiful, and I liked getting some insight on the thought process the animators had behind their designs and how they were trying to make every little thing connect to the bigger story at hand.

I enjoyed reading about the thought process behind this film and what inspired the production team to make it as it is. That being said, there were some concepts that I would've preferred in the movie but overall, it was a nice quick read.
