A lovable rat (yes, a rat!), Remy is driven by his passion for fine cuisine to become a chef—against all odds and with madcap adventures along the way—at the most famous restaurant in Paris. The Art of Ratatouille includes more than 200 of the artistic ingredients in this heartwarming film: storyboards, full-color pastels, digital and pencil sketches, character studies, maquettes, and more. In this exclusive movie tie-in book for adults, effusive quotes from the director, artists, animators, and production team reveal the genius at work inside the studio that changed cartoon heroes forever. Review: A "bon appetit" experience for all artists - I love my book! It came brand new, and unharmed. I wanted this book because I've been wanting to get my hands on as many "Art Of" books as I can! Disney, or non-Disney. This is my second one so far, and each one is a pleasure to own. The magic that these books have is that they give its readers and artists alike a chance to see the work that goes in to making films. Often we take these films (and the sweaty effort that goes in them) for granted. But these books show the underbelly - the research, the messy designs and redos - and how much efficiency in team work REALLY matters. They're a good idea as to what many other films have to go through too. I adore the chalk pastel sketches, the character design snippets, and the set design. The best part is that every time I see them, I feel like I'm in the Animation Academy in California Adventure, even when I'm just reading the book under lamplight. Review: Great Pre-production book!!! - Even if you didn't like Ratatouille (I don't see why) you can appreciate this book. It is filled with amazing artwork for the film; storyboard, concept sketches, background paintings, color keys, and my favorite concept maquettes/sculptures of the characters. The character sculptures by Greg Dykstra really blew me away. Amazing stuff! Worth the price of the book alone! If you are an artist, animator you can't go wrong with purchasing this book. Artwork is beautiful if not short of brilliant. Some amazing talent at Pixar, who made an amazing film (and still going strong). Very inspiring book!! Not only has the artwork but talks about how Ratatouille came to be. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #167,126 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #96 in Animated Movies #108 in Animation Graphic Design (Books) #200 in Art of Film & Video | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 605 Reviews | ## Images ![The Art of Ratatouille - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91XBWhK89UL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A "bon appetit" experience for all artists *by F***Y on July 26, 2020* I love my book!

Besides the personal connection we have with the Ratatouille movie, I thought he would enjoy exploring the character and animation development. I was right. He loves the book and has an appreciation for the animators’ work. It is a thick book packed with sketches and storyline development. I was also pleased that the Amazon price was much better than the company where I originally found the book. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Art of Ratatouille - The Art of Tangled (Disney) - The Art of Luca --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/4242561-the-art-of-ratatouille](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/4242561-the-art-of-ratatouille) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
