Some Good Online Animation Books Too

 These are excellent reads.

The nine old men PDFs from Animation Meat

Walt Stanchfield "Drawn to Life" PDFs from Animation Meat

If you like the Walt Stanchfield ones, I suggest getting your hands on a copy of the two "Drawn to Life" texts.   You can get it on Amazon, but check in your library first.
