I've been disappointed lately by some of the art books I've read lately because they either didn't have enough text or they had too much. I think The Art of Coco strikes a great balance, without detracting from the main reason you should pick up this book: the concept art. There's a large variety of mediums here with, sketches, digital paintings, storyboards, and clay sculptures.

There's a few sections of text dedicated to different crew members talking about how meaningful it was for them to work on the movie, but I thought those sections all sounded pretty genuine. The rest of the text was not wasted at all, listing some of the different artists, art periods, and locales that helped shape the movie and how the cultural history/traditions helped inform certain creative decisions.

There's enough art in here that artistic folk will be more than satisfied, and enough text that someone who doesn't have much of an art background will find something to enjoy. I really enjoyed this book and I'd recommend it to any fan of the movie interested in learning more about the film.
