Fifty Favorite Birds Coloring Book (Dover Coloring Book)

Fantastic. These books are the best I have found to find pictures to use as templets or stencils for designs to paint on silk.

I got my first dover coloring book about 30 years ago and have been hooked. I now have a collection of about 20. They are kind of hard to find in retail and when you do the selection is poor.

I find coloring to be very relaxing when you are stressed. I also cannot just watch tv I like to be doing crochet or cross stitching, coloring.

These books are very well done as far as the drawings are concerned. They can be very intricate. Some are made more for children but many would be hard for a child under say 10yrs old to do and feel good about.

They are best done with colored pencils as you can get really good at shading and make them really pretty.

I highly recommend this and many others. I do own this specific book.

This book was wonderful in it's detail and I truly like the fold out pages with the pictures of the birds in their true colors. I look forward to many hours with this book. Perhaps it is the kid in me, or perhaps this book is good for grownups, whichever way you feel, I liked it.

I bought this book for my children who are both bird lovers and gifted artists. We prefer this bird coloring book over the other bird coloring books because this is the only one that has a fold-out section in the front and back of the books showing each page in full-color. My children have used those as guides as to how to properly color each type of bird. The others (such as Audobon birds or State Birds and Flowers-- others we have) do not include colored guides.

I just purchased these Dover COloring Books for my mother and she loves them. The detail is out of this world and the variety of colors you can use are only limited by your inagination. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
