Millie Marotta's Tropical Wonderland (Colouring Book Adventure)

Beautiful designs love them! Will have to have to color with color pencils due to the pages are back to back. The pages do not tear out easily as well. So if you want to choose a page to color to hang up make sure you don't like the page behind it!

I love her coloring books. This is the second one that I have bought. Her drawings are excellent and I recommend them to everyone.

This book is wonderful. The drawings are perfect! I am very happy with it and reccomend it to people who like tropical plants and animals.

These color books are a pure joy to color! If you wish to color with markers, like I do, without the bleed-thru I recommend a marker for scrapbooking.

Thank you

Awesome coloring book. She is a great artist, I will be watching for more from her.

Love this book!! Great variety of pictures from easy to more detail and nice thick paper.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with this book. Unfortunately it's EXACTLY the same as Tropical World--same cover (although this one has a foldout) same artwork, same size, etc., just produced by a different publisher. I didn't know this and bought both. Very disappointing. Hope this helps someone else avoid the mistake, and it would be nice if the description had disclosed this.

Bellissimi disegni pieni di particolari. Rilegatura e pagine resistenti adatte ️️nn solo per i pastelli ma anche per i pennarelli! Consigliato

very happy honest seller

Tropical Wonderland is every bit as wonderful as Millie Marotta's previous book Animal Kingdom. This book is the same size, shape and thickness as her first book and others like Secret Garden, Enchanted Forest and Animorphia. The books pages are all a very crisp white colour and are a good thickness, although those of us now spoilt by Enchanted Forest or the new reprint of Secret Garden will notice that the pages of Millie's books are a little thinner. The pages are all printed on both sides and I can't comment on felt pens as I don't use them, but I can say that pencils really glide on the page and it's just lovely. This book is very much like Animal Kingdom. It starts with a little message introduction from Millie herself, thanking us for buying her books and she talks a bit about this book and colouring suggestions. Having this little message somehow makes her book feel more personal. I like this touch :) The pictures are all black and white (no pre-coloured parts) and follow the same sort of pattern as before. You get pictures of animals and foliage with intricate patterns on them and other pictures of just animals made out of hundreds of leaves and things. Once again all the pictures are very realistic in their shapes and I can't believe the range of exotic creatures. There are flamingos, lemurs, cranes, peacocks, hornbill birds and armadillo to name just a few. There are also a few pages concentrating more on foliage and I find myself strangely attracted to a page filled with cacti. Some of the pages have writing on them, suggestions of colours or details you can add, but there seems to be far less of this writing than in her previous book. Some pages have blank white spaces around them and once again Millie suggests that we could add our own backgrounds. And for those of us that want to try it there are again a few pages at the back to attempt drawing your own tropical wonderland. I personally love the chance to add my own details, it really makes the book my own creation, and for those who might be afraid of adding your own drawings, don't worry! Nobody else has to see your work if you don't want them to and there's something relaxing about just doodling away. And you don't have to just use black pens or a sharpened black pencil, you can draw using regular pencils, they rub out a lot easier! Some people still don't like images that go right into the spine, and although this book does have some double page spreads that go to the spine it wasn't as big an issue for me as some books. For example in the book 'Animorphia' there is a peacock whose body is lost in the centre spine, but Millie's drawn a beautiful peacock over two pages but it's body fits on the right hand side and it's standing at an angle so only feathers go into the spine. Only bits of foliage usually are in the spine and apart from a big whale the animals are usually fully visible on the pages. This book is really lovely, I'm already colouring in the peacock - I'm always attracted to peacock pictures :). And my pencils really work well on the page. I'd recommend this book to anyone of any age. Kids and adults will all enjoy the stunning designs and even though I've only started I already am looking forward to a hopeful third book by Millie. If you like this book I'd recommend her first book 'Animal Kingdom' for those that don't have it already :)

Wonderful colouring book. Excellent paper which is both thick and smooth so colour blending is so effortless..Happy with the purchase. Planning to get more such books..

Ich liebe dieses Malbuch, jede Seite ist wunderschön gestaltet. Ein sehr gutes Beispiel dafür, dass Malbücher nicht nur etwas für Kinder sind sondern auch Erwachsenen Spaß bringen kann. Definitiv zu empfehlen
