This is a beautifully illustrated book。 It's pages are full of delicate pictures of the jungle with animals hidden in the pictures。 I was coloring along and there she was a ladybug I had missed until almost the end。 There is a lot of fun to be had and hours of relaxation pouring throughout。 Get your pencils pens， markets or paints ready。 Here comes the jungle fun。 Yipee！！！ This is a beautifully illustrated book。 It's pages are full of delicate pictures of the jungle with animals hidden in the pictures。 I was coloring along and there she was a ladybug I had missed until almost the end。 There is a lot of fun to be had and hours of relaxation pouring throughout。 Get your pencils pens， markets or paints ready。 Here comes the jungle fun。 Yipee！！！ 。。。more

LOVE LOVE LOVE this adult coloring book！ The pages are thick and sturdy。 The designs to color are fun and engaging。 Pictures are back to back which is the only drawback so you can't use anything that will bleed through。 I had mine spiral bound so the pages don't come loose。 Loving it！ LOVE LOVE LOVE this adult coloring book！ The pages are thick and sturdy。 The designs to color are fun and engaging。 Pictures are back to back which is the only drawback so you can't use anything that will bleed through。 I had mine spiral bound so the pages don't come loose。 Loving it！ 。。。more

I received this book a few months ago as a good reads giveaway in exchange for a review。 There is excellent detail throughout the artwork， and many pages to complete。 I'm only giving three stars because since it's a jungle theme it kind of limits the colors to use。 This was my first experience with an adult coloring book and I will buy some in the future。 I received this book a few months ago as a good reads giveaway in exchange for a review。 There is excellent detail throughout the artwork， and many pages to complete。 I'm only giving three stars because since it's a jungle theme it kind of limits the colors to use。 This was my first experience with an adult coloring book and I will buy some in the future。 。。。more

Very nice quality book。 Heavy weight paper perfect for even markers。 My only complaint is that it is printed on both sides， and I would imagine if you used markers on one side then turned over to color the opposite side， the 2nd print might be distorted from the wetness of the markers。 Also， if someone wanted to save both prints， you couldn't see both at the same time。 The print scale isn't so small that it becomes too busy。 Very nice quality book。 Heavy weight paper perfect for even markers。 My only complaint is that it is printed on both sides， and I would imagine if you used markers on one side then turned over to color the opposite side， the 2nd print might be distorted from the wetness of the markers。 Also， if someone wanted to save both prints， you couldn't see both at the same time。 The print scale isn't so small that it becomes too busy。 。。。more

Magical Jungle - Johanna Bashford （5 Stars ） This was another Beautiful coloring book from Johanna Bashford 。 I loved all the different jungle animals ， foliage and Flowers displayed amongst the thick cream colored paper 。 Which made it easy to use colored pencils ， water-colored pencils or gel pens without it coming through to the pictures on the other side of the page。

It's super great that the author added a "Color Palette Test Page" right before the detachable pages in the back but WHY NOT MAKE THE COLOR TEST DETACHABLE TOO？ Do you know how many goddamn times I've had to flip through this book to find that page？ A LOT。（I'd recommend Prismacolor pencils， but those fuckers are EXPENSIVE。 Use your patience and use a coupon/voucher。）（Another tip: DO NOT look at the example colorings on the author's website。 They will make you feel inadequate AF。） It's super great that the author added a "Color Palette Test Page" right before the detachable pages in the back but WHY NOT MAKE THE COLOR TEST DETACHABLE TOO？ Do you know how many goddamn times I've had to flip through this book to find that page？ A LOT。（I'd recommend Prismacolor pencils， but those fuckers are EXPENSIVE。 Use your patience and use a coupon/voucher。）（Another tip: DO NOT look at the example colorings on the author's website。 They will make you feel inadequate AF。） 。。。more

I received this book for free from Goodread's Giveaway。I only own one other adult coloring book but I feel as if I have done my fair share of research on what makes a coloring book excellent。There are some neat additional features that I haven't seen in other coloring books -A hidden animal game-A test page for colorsThere are perforated pages in the back with designs only on one side to share or display。 The rest of the pages towards the front are on both sides。 The paper is sturdy enough that I received this book for free from Goodread's Giveaway。I only own one other adult coloring book but I feel as if I have done my fair share of research on what makes a coloring book excellent。There are some neat additional features that I haven't seen in other coloring books -A hidden animal game-A test page for colorsThere are perforated pages in the back with designs only on one side to share or display。 The rest of the pages towards the front are on both sides。 The paper is sturdy enough that nothing should bleed through。As far as the designs go， the pages have a variety of difficult to them。 So if you're in the mood for tiny details， there's pages with that， if you need just some big areas to fill in， you can find that too。All in all， this is a great option especially if you love animals。 。。。more

Yet another beautiful book to add to my coloring book collection。 I love the whimsical illustrations which are best colored with pencil crayons。 I did discover watercolor pencil crayons this year and I may try them on this coloring book， just to shake things up。 If you have not yet had a chance to jump on the adult coloring book craze， Johanna Basford's books are beautifully done and perfect for all ages。 Yet another beautiful book to add to my coloring book collection。 I love the whimsical illustrations which are best colored with pencil crayons。 I did discover watercolor pencil crayons this year and I may try them on this coloring book， just to shake things up。 If you have not yet had a chance to jump on the adult coloring book craze， Johanna Basford's books are beautifully done and perfect for all ages。 。。。more

As adult coloring books explode onto the market， I’m amazed at the exquisite details some of these books contain。Illustrator Johanna Basford has one such book with her soon-to-be released MAGICAL JUNGLE: An Inky Expedition and Coloring Book for Adults。 The intricate pen and ink illustrations are a work of beauty before color is ever added。Basford takes colorists on a fascinating adventure through an exotic rainforest。 There’s not just flora and fauna waiting to be brought it life with color， but As adult coloring books explode onto the market， I’m amazed at the exquisite details some of these books contain。Illustrator Johanna Basford has one such book with her soon-to-be released MAGICAL JUNGLE: An Inky Expedition and Coloring Book for Adults。 The intricate pen and ink illustrations are a work of beauty before color is ever added。Basford takes colorists on a fascinating adventure through an exotic rainforest。 There’s not just flora and fauna waiting to be brought it life with color， but also numerous animals of all shapes and sizes。 In fact， Basford lists just what types of animals and how many of each are hidden throughout the pages for you to find。 In addition， there’s a brief introduction and several tips for making the journey a fun coloring experience。Colorists can let their imagination run wild as they explore this tropical paradise。 The beautiful drawings will have you stopping to admire the overall whimsical effect。 This book is a great way to lose yourself for a few hours （or longer） and relax letting your creative side take over。Basford， dubbed ‘the reigning queen of coloring’ by the New York Times， definitely lives up to her title with her forthcoming release。 MAGICAL JUNGLE is a magical experience for all ages。FTC Full Disclosure – A copy of this book was sent to me by the publisher in hopes I would review it。 However， receiving the complimentary copy did not influence my review。 The thoughts are completely my own and given honestly and freely。 。。。more
