# The Amazing Maurice: The Art of the Film - Hardcover

by **Ramin Zahed** (Author)

**The official art book for the animated movie _The Amazing Maurice_, based on the Carnegie Medal-winning Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett**

Maurice is a streetwise talking tomcat who comes up with a money-making scam by befriending a group of talking rats and finding a dumb-looking kid who plays a pipe. When Maurice and company reach the stricken town of Bad Blintz, they meet a bookworm called Malicia and their scheme soon goes down the drain.

_The Art of the Film_ is a coffee table hardback celebration of the creative process of bringing _The Amazing Maurice_ to life, including exclusive concept designs, character sketches, storyboards and production art, alongside insight from the artists, filmmakers and directors.
