Inside you can see the early sketches, full colour renders, and 3D models for the characters, locations, and and key moments of Hoppers. It comes with a mix of art styles from the talented team that makes it a joy to flip through. As well as this, there are storyboards for scenes in the movie and photos of the team on trips to help them with their designs. A section is also included with ideas that were cut from the final script entirely that readers will certainly appreciate.

Hoppers is an upcoming animated movie from Pixar that follows Mabel, a young girl that uses who uses a new technology to transfer her mind into a robotic beaver and dropping her into the animal world. Hoppers tackles the topic of looking after our environment, using Pixar's comedy, heart, and incredible visuals, to deliver a thoughtful story for all ages.
