4.0 out of 5 stars Not quite what I expected, but just what I wanted, September 7, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Little Princess Coloring Book (Paperback)
This "coloring book" is not just a coloring book: it's a book that you can color. It is a little more than 50% text, with 31 illustrations (usually half-page or less) over 48 pages. The line art pictures are detailed and could be colored or left alone; they are not at all baby-ish in their qualities. The text is a reasonable abridged version that I think an above-average second grader might be able to read without difficulty, and would be appropriate for girls up to about age 12.

The paper is relatively thick and high quality -- not at all like the cheap pulp/newsprint sort of coloring books that you find for 99 cents at the grocery store. The binding is three staples, but since the book is large (8.25 by 11 inches), it will lay flat enough to color. The cover is thick, glossy, and has full-color illustrations inside and out.

I bought two copies of this as a gift, to go with a copy of the original book, which will be too difficult just now for the children in question. I had expected simpler drawings and only a very few lines of text, and had been wondering if I ought to buy an abridged book so they could read it. Consequently, I am absolutely delighted to discover that this coloring book includes a simplified story with wonderful, beautiful drawings.

This coloring book is "not what I expected, but just what I wanted."
