Amigurumi Animals: 15 Patterns and Dozens of Techniques for Creating Cute Crochet Creatures by Annie Obaachan

I'm actually not as crazy about the style of the patterns in this one, but it has a great section on designing your own amigurumi patterns from sketches. It shows how most animals can be broken down into a few basic shapes, the same way you do when you're drawing. Lots of good ideas.

Mini-Häkeltiere: 15 Amigurumi-Ideen by Annie Obaachan

The book was a waste of money for me. The patterns you see on the cover photo are not included in the book!!!! There are only very very simple patterns of animals in there and I don´t like the look of them. If you are a compleet newbie to crochet you can try to make these. I guess to book is ok for absolute beginners. I´m very disappointed and I think they shouldn´t be allowed to show things on the cover of crochet books that they don´t even contain.
EDIT:
Found out now that it´s the same show more book as this one:
