Now, another fresh idea from the author of the bestselling Anti-Coloring Book series. The Newspaper Anti-Coloring Book puts kids into action creating all the parts of a newspaper. Children can draw their favorite athlete on the sports page, design a new product for an ad, or describe local and national events from their own point of view.

Susan Striker is the author of the best-selling Anti-Coloring Book® series with over one million books in print all over the world. Designed to stimulate creativity and encourage problem solving and critical thinking, the books help children draw their own pictures as well as their own conclusions about life. She also wrote Please Touch® (Simon & Schuster) which teaches parents and educators how to stimulate creativity through movement, music, art and play. Young at Art® (Henry Holt) is a comprehensive text about the value and significance of early childhood art. That book clearly demonstrates the important link between early scribbles and later literacy.
