About Coloring NovelsTM:
Novels have been refused the love of artistic interactivity and brilliant colors for far too long. Not anymore…
Coloring novels were dreamed up by author and artist, Emilyann Girdner. She launched Coloring Novels™ because she wanted to bring the joy of reading novels and coloring together. Reading is an inspiring experience, so you are invited to color the provided pictures, draw your own art, and jot down your ideas as you enjoy this adventure. For more coloring and reading enjoyment, collect all classic stories available by Coloring Novels™.
*Note that colored pencils are ideal for this paper.
Markers and some gel pens may bleed through pages.
Attempting to color the paperback edition covers may cause smearing and is not recommended.
My thoughts:
I am a HUGE lover of coloring, it relaxes me to no end. When you combine my love of coloring and reading novels you have a winner. When I read paper books or even eBooks I have a habit of leaving notes in the margins and highlighting spots that I loved. I need the interaction and you can tell when I really like the story but the number of doodles are in it.
The Coloring Novels bring a level of interaction that I wasn’t even aware was possible. The stories are brought to life in a bigger way and you totally make the story your own. You may have read Sense and Sensibility or Midsummer Night’s Dream, but you haven’t read it like this!
This is a fantastic gift for a book lover in your life or as a treat for yourself. Coloring Novels are such a fun way to read your favorite book!
Emillyann even created a digital version that you can color on your iPad!
