How to Draw Donkey Kong & Friends

The book's cover art How to Draw Donkey Kong & Friends is a book written by Michael Teitelbaum and illustrated by Leif Peng. Published in 1997, it features a series of how-to-draw artwork based on the protagonists and antagonists of the Donkey Kong Country series. It starts with a foreword "written" by Cranky Kong, who claims that he wrote it since Donkey Kong was too lazy. Some of the book's artwork is unique, with some (such as Cranky Kong and Funky Kong) using new poses and others (such as Rambi the Rhino and Expresso the Ostrich) directly taking their poses from existing artwork.
