 In later years, Goodrich drew a spin-off cartoon series, "Creatures", collected in the book "Creatures Or Not So Dumb Animals" (Eden East Press, 2001).Although Goodrich drew his animal cartoons for years and then wrote newspaper columns ("Travelin' Man") and several books ("An Artist's Life"), his lasting fame came with a single drawing, "The Little Man," which he drew in 1942.Used alongside "San Francisco Chronicle" film reviews as a movie rating system, this Goodrich device was praised by Roger Ebert, Gerald Nachman, Austin Kleon, and other writers.
