Art Matters: Because Your Imagination Can Change the World by Neil GaimanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Hooter: "Make Good Art!"
A series of short essays with illustrations would make you think this is a children's book at first glance. But the content is applicable to all ages. All Neil Gaiman asks of you is to "make good art". Also keep our libraries alive for our future generations. Just some honest and passionate thoughts of Neil urging artists to not sell out and do what they feel right. He also talks about the importance of agreeing to differ which brings diversity and better learning. The book is filled with quotable quotes:
"The world always seems brighter when you've just made something that wasn't there before."
"Fiction is the lie that tells the truth."
A breezy read and thought provoking down to earth concepts to ponder on.
