The Night Voyage ~ Watson-Guptill Publications ~ Book Review


by Daria Song

ISBN: 9780399579042
Publisher: Watson-Guptill Publications
Publication Date: November 2016
RRP: £9.99

Available Direct from GMC.


Enchanting
Beautiful
A story in itself.



I have never seen a colouring book like this.
It's amazing.
From the first point of opening the book
you know it's something different.
It really is special.


The book starts with a short story
about a little girls whose parents
have to be away for her birthday.
They have left her with a mountain of presents.
She decides that if she distributes them
to all the boys and girls of the world
then she might make some new friends.
The question is how will she do this.....??


This book takes the story and takes you
on a journey with the girl, her presents
and her pet cat.
You get to take the journey with them and
to colour it in to make it even more of
a special journey.
Once you have finished colouring it in you
get to keep this special story book.
It might not have words but the pictures
tell you the journey.

 

The pictures really are beautiful!
This is just so special.
It would make the perfect gift
for any age.
As soon as my father saw it he was even
taken with it and he doesn't even really
like colouring.



This is one colouring book
you'll really want to treasure.

I Dream of Yarn ~ Sterling ~ Book Review


by Franklin Habit

ISBN: 9781942021759
Publisher: Sterling
Publication Date: 7 Nov. 2016
RRP: £7.99

Available direct from GMC.


This has to be the best colouring book EVER!!!!
Okay I am biased.
I love yarn and I love this colouring book.



If you know someone who knits or crochets
or just likes yarn in general
then I would really recommend getting them
this book (this includes yourself).



I love to crochet and knit but sometimes I just
need a break.
Colouring is ideal as it doesn't take any thinking
but you still get to create.
I am one of those people that has to rest
but hates to "waste" time.
I like to be doing.
Colouring is ideal.



Each of the pictures is yarn based.
Everything from skeins of yarn,
knitting to crocheting.



There are jumpers, scarves
and mittens.
You name it, it's got yarn in it.



This colouring book is such fun!
There is nothing serious about it.
It's just a case of having lots of
colouring yarny fun!!!!!

 

I really would recommend this book.
I would love to give it as a gift
but I just love it so much I need to keep
it myself!

Color Odyssey ~ 20 Postcards to Color & Send ~ Get Creative 6 ~ Book Review


by Chris Garver

ISBN: 9781942021612
Publisher: Get Creative 6
Publication Date: September 2016
RRP: £9.99

Available direct from GMC.

    

Colouring has become so popular
but sometimes you wonder what you can
make with the things you are colouring.
This offers you an alternative that is
great fun and brilliant to send to friends
and relatives.


Each of the cards are highlighted in gold that
extenuate the designs.


The pictures include everything from flowers,
animals, shapes, messages & faces.


The varied mix of pages to colour mean
that you will be kept busy for quite a while.
They are on a beautiful thick cardboard
so they won't be damaged in the post.


I love the idea of this book.
What is more special than making something
for someone and surprising them with
it in the post.
