Customer Reviews

MUST HAVE

This book is a must have. It is great for developmental learning and gives children directions that are easy to follow. I have worked with kids for several years and wish these books were out a long time ago so I could have spread the word sooner. Truly great books.

Squiggles Fun

Fantastic tool for the beginning artist. Each page gives a description of what the picture could be completed with and lets the budding artist finish the drawing and then color in the page ! My grandsons(ages 5 and 3) love it..

Adults...you can color too!

I bought the Squiggles book for my granddaughter and the Doodles book for myself. I absolutely love "getting lost" coloring with pencils and markers. The book will eventually become an art journal. I write comments about what I've drawn as well as the date. Great for kids. Great for adults!

Love it!!

I bought this book as well as two others from Taro Gomi for my daughter for Christmas. I absolutely love them. This book gets children (as well as adults) to really think outside the box and get creative. I would recommend this to anyone. Great product!!!

not your ordinary coloring book

I'm so glad I bought this! I bought it for my 7 year old daughter (I bought Doodles for my other dd) and both girls were absorbed for a while with the books. The pages have much more than just pictures to color - it has little starter drawings and asks you to complete the picture. It's so perfect for the older child who is a bit beyond just coloring in the lines, but still provides some structure. Knowing how to read will make this book a more enjoyable experience for your child. Also, it's a very thick book - I originally bought it as a stocking stuffer, but it's way too thick for that.
