Review
By M.
newbold
I
work as a writer, and had been asked recently to write a couple of articles
about this new craze for adult colouring books. The idea did make my eyebrows
raise in wonder at why an adult would want to sit and colour in pictures!
Wasn't that something that only kids do? However, I discovered that adults can
use colouring in as a sort of stress-relief after busy day at work, or when
they need to clear their head to concentrate on something important. So I tried
it too!
When you spend your day reading and writing words, it is really nice to switch off and do something completely different. Normally I would take my dog for a walk, or go out into the garden, but that's not an option when it's throwing it down with rain. This book is proving to be the perfect solution for me to clear my head, and I find myself becoming really absorbed in the action of colouring in the pictures in this book.
I like horses, and this book would be great for a horse lover. Lesley has very cleverly incorporated quotes on the facing pages, some of which are very inspiring or educational. Don't worry - there is not too much reading to do, and it's not compulsory at all!
The drawings in the book vary widely in style, and they are not all formatted to look the same, as in some of my old childhood colouring books. From pretty to abstract, there will be something in here to appeal to your taste, and there is even a seahorse - that made me smile!
