I love to color and this is a wonderful colorng book. The prints look really natural so all you have to privide is the imagination to bring them to life. The only draw-back is that the prints are on both sides of the page. One is usually not usable after the other is colored depending on what medium you use. They should print on only one side of the page.
My wife and I have enjoyed butterflies, over the years, and we regularly see butterflies in our home gardens, but it was only recently, following my wife's stroke, that we began to study and further appreciate the world of beauty that butterflies brought to our lives. We started studying butterflies, learning the varieties, and coloring them in other coloring books, but most books concentrate on the identification and presentation of the more common varieties. In Ruth Stoffer's Exotic Butterflies and Moths, we are introduced to a number of lesser known varieties. In addition to large prints of the butterflies for coloring, there are excellent descriptions of the butterflies and moths and their markings, and include specifics on range, habitat, and food sources. While many of the more exotic butterflies and moths might not be native to our area, we can appreciate the variety and beauty they represent, through this excellent book.
I love love love these coloring books! My favorite thing about these books is that are good enough to frame when you done with the picture!Colored pencils work best on these books!!Relaxing coloring book for adults!!! I'm a mom of 2 and at the end of the day this is my escape...Recommend to all adults ...men and women!Please let me know if my review helped you in your purchase !
Great pictures, very detailed. A lot of fun. These are not for crayons or markers. I can't imagine using anything other than colored pencils. I color these with my 10 year old daughter but truly I love doing them too. Highly recommended!
For more mature individuals using colored pencils instead of crayons.My mother is 91 and absolutely loves coloring beautiful butterflies, birds and flowers.This was especially an excellent addition to her supply.
This coloring book has beautiful illustration however you can only use color pencils as there are illustrations on both sides of each page. Not good for detailing of pictures using fine line markers.
This is a nice, detailed coloring book. It has attached "trading" cards in the front and back that show what colors the butterflies are in nature. Coloring is relaxing and a nice way to unwind.
This book is okay. I'm a little disappointed that pictures are on both sides of the paper as it will limit what I am able to use to color them, but the paper is a decent weight. It's a nice added bonus to learn about the different butterflies and moths. I will be looking in a nature book to see the exact coloring of each one before I color the pictures. It may be more challenging than other coloring books.
