drawn from nature, from under water scenes, to forest canopies,
elephants and crocodiles, to fantasy creatures. The pages echo the

hidden animals throughout the book for eagle eyed colourers to
unearth and bring to life, and a range of difficulty levels there's
something for everyone to discover. Ranging from delicate and
detailed designs, to simple images and patterns, and leaving lots
of room for colouring outside the lines, this book provides a
beautiful experience to dip into and out of when your brain, or
