Of course, there are different levels of beginners as well. Most of the Adobe Illustrator books I suggested on the list are good options for beginners. You’ll also find around eight hours of practical videos and some interactive quizzes for improving your professional skills. The lessons from this book are mainly project-based, which teach some real-world skills that will help you prepare for your future career. It teaches you how to use Adobe Illustrator tools to create different types of graphic design like posters, infographics, branding for business, etc. While some of the other books focus more on software tools and techniques, this book takes you through the practical use of Adobe Illustrator in graphic design.
