From the black-and-white stripes of a Zebra Swallowtail to the pale jade of a Malachite, coloring your own field guide is the most enjoyable way to learn about butterflies. Each drawing is accompanied by a brief description that educates as it entertains. Place the new color stickers next to the drawings for a visual reference while coloring. Coloring the drawings helps reinforce the color, image, and shape of each butterfly, improving your memory and perception while offering a pleasant and easy way to learn. Fun for adults as well as children, beginning and experienced naturalists alike.

If your children love nature, you have to buy this!,
By
This review is from: Field Guide to Butterflies (Peterson Field Guide Coloring Books) (Paperback)
Beautiful color pictures on the front cover and a chance to read about and color the butterflies on the inside. You should buy a set of colored penciles for this color book. Your child can identify the butterflies by the picture on the cover and learn more about them in the book. A real nature guide, not your run of the mill coloring book. Buy the series and you can sneak in an education on nature while your child is having fun.

Peterson's Butterflies,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Field Guide to Butterflies (Peterson Field Guide Coloring Books) (Paperback)
This is for the person who likes to color and learn something at the same time. Each butterfly is described in detail and all illustrations appear in the covers in full color. Colored pencil artists will enjoy blending their colors to come up with the range of hues found in these butterflies.
