Amazing Birds: Adult Coloring Book

I really love this book. Just because we grow up, doesn't mean we don't like coloring anymore. There is something relaxing about it, that you will never grow out of. This book doesn't come with crayons or markers, so you have free-range to use whatever medium you want without feeling like the book is only meant for one medium. You can paint these, use markers, use crayons, whatever you want! It is very diverse. What I like about this is that it has a ton of really fun facts about birds in it as well, so you learn a fun new fact on each page about the bird. It is also a great form of therapy (physical and psychological). It can put the mind at ease, as well as be a form of therapy for people with motor disorders. It is an excellent way to express oneself. I really like this "grown up" version of a coloring book. It has all the same fun elements without making you feel childish. :) Definitely recommend this! I love it! I attached some images to illustrate the points I made in this review! :)*I received this product complimentary to test and give my honest and unbiased review*

I have always enjoyed coloring and I love that there are so many adult coloring books out there now! I was really excited to receive this book. When it arrived, I have to say that I was a little disappointed after paging through it. The images themselves are really pretty, but I noticed that the outlines just kind of fade off in the corners which I think looks a little weird and just not finished looking. I'm unsure if that's a printing issue or if they intended it to be that way. I also think the bird facts are a little odd and out of place. They make it feel more like a children's coloring book rather than an adult coloring book. I have a couple of other more popular adult coloring books and the paper is a lot better quality, so I was also a little disappointed in the paper quality of this book.However, the images are really beautiful and although they are intricate, they are not too intricate so that it takes days to color one image. I like that about it. I was able to color two of the images and only devote 2-3 hours on each one. Of course, as a mom of 4 young boys, that is interrupted time, so I'm not exactly sure how long it took me to color each image. Coloring is really relaxing for me and I love that i can devote a couple of hours to it and have a finished page, where I cannot do that with other adult coloring books I have.I love the images themselves and the little designs inside each one. I think they are definitely my style. I also love that the back of each page is blank. So if you're using markers, you don't have to worry about the ink bleeding through to the other side and ruining an image on the backside. And if you want to take a page out, you're not removing an additional image.I definitely think that the positives outweigh the negatives in this coloring book. I really enjoyed my time coloring in it and am looking forward to coloring some more images in the future!I received this item in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

I got the Kindle version for my Kindle Paperwhite. My first problem was how to print the pages so that I could color them. I found no option to print from within the Paperwhite. I googled it and found this option is not available for Paperwhites. As I had never tried to print out a book before, I was a bit shocked by this. What further shocked me was that this book's description didn't warn people that it was not compatible with those versions of Kindle. She's selling a coloring book for Kindle users knowing full well that those who own a Paperwhite won't be able to print out the pages for coloring??? and doesn't bother to mention that up front??? That seems a bit dishonest to me, a bit greedy, too.There is a link in the front of the book that say's it's for a "100% free gift" to thank you for your purchase. I assumed that was for a few printable pages that could be downloaded. When I take that link, it appears that a page does start to load, but then I get an "application error" window that says the application could not be started, please try again. I have tried over and over and over again, all with the same results.Then I remembered that in the introduction, the author mentioned that she had offered to put your finished pages on her website....but she never gives you the address for that web site, only an email address. When I googled the authors name, no website comes up.The more I thought about this, the less it made sense...she's selling a coloring book for Kindle users that can't be printed out and colored and doesn't see any reason to tell you this beforehand??? the author is keeping her website a secret??? the link for a free gift doesn't work???I came back to this page to see if anyone else was having these issues and discovered the ebook version is no longer available for purchase. Huh??? So I got a coloring book that I can't print out the pages, the link to printed pages is not working, the website is non-existent, and now the book is off the market....???? Something stinks here...
