Product Description

Synopsis
The Anti-Colouring Book is nothing like an ordinary colouring book. It's great. It's different. It's completely original. It provides the springboard for ideas and gives you the chance to use your imagination to the full. So what are you waiting for? Get your paints, crayons, felt-tip pens, or whatever else you like to use, and get colouring creatively. If you can keep the book to yourself, that is!

5.0 out of 5 stars I can't get enough of these books!, 25 Aug 2004
By L. White "loopy" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I first saw this book on someone else's bookshelf, and just had to track down my own copy. Since then I've bought several more, because the children love them! So much better than the colour-the-spaces-and-don't-go-over-the-lines books, these books encourage children to use their imagination. I tried to get one for myself, but the children saw it and I lost it again!
Draw the new fish that's been discovered, draw the picture that goes with the report of the first alien to land on earth, draw your nightmare, draw your daydream. Simple enough for a young child to use (it helps if they can read the few words of instruction) and inspiring enough for older children, up to teenagers (older than that will probably think it's not "cool" until they reach adulthood!). Because you're drawing your own designs all the time, the children are even asking for second and third copies of the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!, 19 April 2008
By Funmum (Caerphilly) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anti-colouring Book (Paperback)
This book really sparks the imagination! I bought this to top up an order and dont regret it! One of my children just "doesnt do drawing" and said at 11 she was "too old for colouring in". I gave her this and she didnt out it down for days, completing page after page of detailed and imaginative artwork.
The book gives the idea, a basic start such as "design a stamp for the first postcard sent from Mars" and a postcard outline... or "The artist hurt his thumb as he was starting his picture, can you help him out?" and they are off! Great for any child who has difficulty with imaginative artwork or who has trouble creating something pleasing from scratch :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant! Buy One...or two!!, 10 April 2008
This review is from: Anti-colouring Book (Paperback)
I bought this for my ten year old daughter who is art mad! Ordinary colouring books are OK but limit creativity to "what colour shall I use next?" This book is wonderful, it asks the user to think about what they want to draw by starting with the germ of an idea and then letting the user decide where to take it from there!
My daughter and her friends were facinated by it!
Excellent for home, school, play groups, after school clubs etc.
