The detailed drawings in this exquisite coloring book for adults highlight the species throughout the world that are endangered or vulnerable. Each of the fifty-six drawings has a paragraph at the end of the book giving information about the animals. I found reading about the animals enhanced the enjoyment of looking at the intricate illustrations.
This coloring book can be enjoyed by just looking at the wonderful pictures, but if you feel creative, coloring the pictures adds to the pleasure. In this stressful time of illness and Covid restrictions it’s a good way to escape for awhile, use your creative urges, and in addition learn about these special animals and habitats.
Although all the illustrations are wonderful, my favorite was of the Hooded Grebs from Argentina. I love the way Rosanes builds in an appropriate background in this case flying geese. This book provides a pleasant way to relax and to learn more about our very special world. I highly recommend it.
I received this book from Penguin Random House for this review.
