Not too long ago I noticed dragonflies around my swimming pool. They were multi-colored and had fascinating antics. About the time of my dragonfly discovery, I heard a lecture was to be given at the Santa Rosa Garden Club about dragonflies, so I attended the lecture, orchestrated by Kathy Biggs. Dragonflies are her passion and she has studied them for years. She is one of few individuals quite knowledgeable on the subject, you might say she's an expert. She displayed a coloring book with pictures of many Dragonflies of North America. The book is not only a delightful coloring book, but is an accurate educational tool. I purchased one for my 5-year-old grandson who was immediately enraptured! Not only is there a great variety of dragonflies to color, but careful descriptions are given to help one distinguish the various kinds of dragonflies. I would encourage anyone whose boy or girl is interested in garden creatures, nature or coloring to purchase one of these books. The book is reasonably priced, considering it is has an educational nature as well as fun. It lends itself to crayons, colored pencils or colored markers.

This is a great book, the pictures and illustrations are awesome. Great way to learn about dragon fly's. No other books out there are like it.

I am writing to rave about this coloring book! It's wonderful! Tim Manolis is an excellent illustrator, and Kathy Biggs' text is perfect for kids and beginners with just the right amount of info and intrigue for more.
