These cartoons that force us to use our imagination and our emotions are ground breaking cartoons. Cartoons are drawings that artist draw and are put together at very high speeds. Cartoons appeal to all ages and makes us all laugh. Cartoons appeal to our emotions and to our funny bone. Everyone remembers Saturday morning cartoons in which you would get up at 8:00 just to watch cartoons.

The characters in cartoons are very diverse. Cartoon characters have varied from dwarfs to small mice. Some cartoon characters have special power such as superman who can fly and has super speed. A character such as Voltron is a machine and consists of many different sections. Many characters were the first the world has ever seen.

Cartoons such as Scooby-Doo were the first of it's kind.
