As kids we were very spoiled with nice sets of color pencils and felt tip pens, and these gorgeous coloring books.  As adults we continue to buy them as gifts for our friends and for ourselves.  I have something like 50 of the different coloring books on my wish list.  I plan on buying a few more of this Steampunk color book for gifts. Thanks for always creating interesting books to keep our minds fresh!

I have several of her books now and I LOVE them! Who doesn't like to color? There are fun details in every book and it allows you to find color combinations that are unique and fun to you.. I absolutely recommend these books! Small detail to large detail, complicated designs to basics.. something for everyone.
Suitable for crayons, colored pencils, felt pens (I mostly use fine tip pens/felt pens.. )

In this book it is amazing how the designs mess with your eyeballs and coloring them is a blast!

This book is so amazing and fun.  It is such a fresh take on the current fascination with zombies and the like.  The story really flows and the kids will have no idea their learning something as well.  I can't wait to share this book with my nieces and nephews--i know their really going to enjoy this book.  And the science experiment at the end is awesome!  What a concept!

There is NOTHING better than color wonder!  My 3 year old grandson loves to color and I do not want the mess of regular crayons.  He can color anywhere he wants and I do NOT have to ever worry about a mess.  Because color wonder only colors on the pages.  Even I love to color with him with Color Wonder.  There are many books to choose from.  The blank pages are great for creativity.  He can draw anything he desires on a blank page.  I wish they had Color Wonder when my kids were little, sure would of saved me a lot of cleaning time!

Coloring.  This has been an activity that I have enjoyed since I was a toddler.  Holly Hobby, Garfield, Strawberry Shortcake, Walt Disney - these were some of my favorites when I was a child. It was so much fun to just sit with a clean page and a fresh box of crayons and just let my imagination go. I would color for hours.  I think I even took a book or two with me when I went to college - just so I could have something to relax with when classes and exams got me too stressed out.  Then I had kids of my own and I was never happier and more relaxed then when I could sit down with them and watch them explore their own creativity and enjoy the smell of that fresh box of crayons themselves! Now, here I am some odd number of years later...my kids are a little older, I'm a little older and coloring has slowly been passed aside for their electronic devices.  But then, someone decided to give the coloring pages of my youth an upgrade and come out with coloring books for adults! Intricate, sophisticated, universally appealing designs that brought back the joy and creativity of my youth! A new trend has emerged and I couldn't be happier!
Here's where the fun part comes in: thanks to modern day technology, I can reach out and find others like me who love to color and take your every day box of crayons to a whole other level! This is glue I found Paperterie Bleu and their line of coloring books for adults.  Now normally, I will admit, I would probably pass over a Day of the Dead themed colored book for Mandalas and Flower Fairies but I saw that they were having a contest online and I figured why not? I have an artist friend who has a while series of Day of the Dead themed paintings that she does and I absolutely love, so while I can't paint to save my life, I could create my own "works of art" with crayons and colored pencils.  I didn't win the grand prize but they did send me a few of their books to try. Boy, am I glad I entered!! I was treated to two books (Sugar Skulls at Midnight Vol. 1 & 2) filled with whimsical, intricate and creative designs all backed with a wonderful black border! My imagination went wild and I couldn't wait to start coloring!  I have only had time to color a few pages in the past few weeks but I have enjoyed exploring the images within and picking my next choices.  Colored pencils, markers...they both look amazing on the paper they used to make these books! I'm on the hunt for some nice gel pens so I can see how those look with the images as well!  Even my kids have asked to color a few pages so this is certainly something that will be enjoyed by coloring artists of all ages!  If you're looking for a new and unique book to spend your days and nights coloring and exploring it, I would recommend both of these books to you!  Thanks Papeterie Blue!

As a parent of a child who has brightened our world with DS I could identify with this book so much! They handle their obstacles with humor with which I also identify. I think it would b

I love the different feel these crayons have compared to standard crayons. The color on the paper is a cross between crayon and pastel. The result is stunning.

Im very impressed with the quality of the Learning Resources items. These sorting crayons do not disappoint. I spend a lot of time looking at & discussing the contents of the crayons with my two & three year old toddlers. They have fun with these.

I may be a little biased due to Rose Cooper being my Cousin, but I absolutely love all of her books. She does all of her own drawings/art work and brings a fun, humorous experience to children and adults alike. I recommend this series of books to anyone with teenage and pre-teen kids that enjoy a good book.

I love these girls so much! Crayon Pop always fills me with energy and joy! They have a unique retro, cutesy, and nerdy style coupled with really fun dance moves. This album will definitely put a pep in your step!

I have colored probably every book that Sue Coccia has designed, she is an incredible artist, I've also learned a lot about coloring from her work.

This is so different from any coloring book you had as a child. The pictures are so beautiful and intricate. I adore the odd details, such as the flowers in the lion's fur. You could quite literally color these for hours and not get bored.
I am a little disappointed because I have the kindle version and some of the pages do not load for me, they just show as a box with a red X through it.

My son brought this home from his school library. Excellent choice I would say. One of the best books I read to him. Funny, intelligent, relatable, beautiful/simple pictures. We can actually use the stories and the pictures in this book to teach some crayon drawing to your kids as the book subtly (or unintentionally) drops hints on the crayon drawing best practices :), like what should a purple crayon be best used for, how kids should try to draw within the lines etc.

I very much enjoyed these books.  They are filled with creativity, deep characters, intriguing ideas and an excellent story.  To me they are best books to come out since The Lord of the Rings.  I love the Harry Potter books as well, but His Dark Materials is much deeper.  It touches on some subjects that even some adults might not understand, but that doesn't mean children should not read these books.  In fact I would encourage parents and children to read them.  The higher level of thinking these books will undoubtedly produce, will help raise awareness and ability to not take everything for granted.

Many people have accused these books of not being appropriate for children.  Mostly they say this for the fact that these books do not look well upon Christianity.  So of course any parent that is unwilling to let their child think for themselves or is afraid that it may cause them to question their faith in religion, would not want anyone, especially children, to read these books.
But why should anyone, especially children, follow religion blindly?  There is more to faith than blind acceptance.  Many of those that grow up with that kind of faith come to question it later in life.
I challenge any parent that is of the Christian doctrines or any other belief system, to take a leap of faith and let their child read these books.  Let them make their own decisions as to their own beliefs and where their faith lies.

All around these books are excellent.  They have magic and adventure.  They empower the mind to think outside the box.  Heart and soul are not left out.  One begins very shortly to think about what one's Daemon might be.  The reader also finds that they cannot help but love Lyra, as you cheer for her on her quest.  I believe this story is wonderful for both adults and children.

I have been reading one book a month through the Prime Kiindle Lending Library and eagerly await for the next month to arrive so I can get the next volume.  The books are incredibly creative and very family oriented, with interesting plots and realistic dialiogues and characters (minus the fact they have these powers we'd all love to have)  .  My only suggestion is for each book to have a family tree / character diagram as I sometimes forget whose kids are whose; which siblings go together, etc.  Maybe if I could read the books back to back the names would stick better.

This book is AMAZING!  We love the creative story and the illustrations are beautiful.  Every page is filled with so many colors, we just can't wait to turn the page to see even more colors and explore the other many options of where your paper airplane could go.  This book helps demonstrate the endless possibilities of a person or child's imagination.
