I love coloring in my own coloring books as my daughter works on her school time or both my kids color at the kitchen table. Adult coloring books are a fabulous recent trend that I can get behind. I have always loved coloring, and I continue that love as an adult. Thus, when recently offered the chance to review Animals Adult Coloring Book from Lifestyle Dezign Coloring Books for Adults Women & Men in exchange for my honest opinion, I eagerly accepted the opportunity to add to my coloring book collection.
Price
Animals Adult Coloring Book currently retails for $8.95 on Amazon. At 104 pages, the book is comparatively priced to other adult coloring books. I thus rate the price positively.

Performance
I have always loved doing arts and crafts including coloring. My kids also love coloring, so, as I supervise the use of crayons, markers, and colored pencils, I have been coloring in my own adult coloring books. I was super excited about Animals Adult Coloring Book from Lifestyle Dezign Coloring Books for Adults Women & Men because I love animals. I love that this coloring book allows me to channel my anxiety, stress, and occasional boredom into artistic fulfillment with gorgeous designs ranging in complexity from beginner to advanced. I can choose to color each small shape with different colors or color in large sections with the same color. The design of the pictures in this coloring book allows me so many options when picking my colors.
Animals Adult Coloring Book is perfect for colored pencils, markers, and other fine tips. So far I have primarily used colored pencils because I like to create intricate designs within each picture. I also used markers on one picture to cover more area with the same color. In addition to the differing levels of complexity, I love that each design is printed on one side of paper with a quote on the back. Although I have primarily stuck to colored pencils with this coloring book, I also love using markers. Unfortunately, I cannot use markers in some of my other adult coloring books because the designs are printed on both sides of each sheet and the markers bleed through to the opposite side. I was so excited to discover that I could use Animals Adult Coloring Book without the colors bleeding through and ruining another picture. The single-sided pictures in this coloring book are a huge plus for me!
Final Verdict
If you are an animal lover who enjoys coloring intricate designs, I highly recommend Animals Adult Coloring Book from Lifestyle Dezign Coloring Books for Adults Women & Men. Join millions of other grown-ups around the world by relaxing and destressing with gorgeous designs to color such as mandala, paisley, and henna-inspired animals. The front of each page features an animal to color while the back includes positive quotes. I love that the animals to color are printed on only the front of each page, which allows me to color with markers without worrying about bleed-through to the opposite design. I am excited to work my way through the 45 beautiful hand-drawn stress-relieving animal pictures in this coloring book with my colored pencils and markers. Animals Adult Coloring Book is a must-have coloring book for any adult who loves to color!
