5 out of 5 stars Great Information   August 16, 2008
My daughter loved this book, in fact the whole series is wonderful. There is so much information and detailed pictures, It's almost a shame to let a child color them in! lol I like to color them with colored pencil as well. The pages are nice and thick. A great gift!


5 out of 5 stars Great for older kids   December 20, 2007

This is a beautiful book that an older kid could really appreciate. I bought it for my 3 year old because she's very into horses right now but she will not do it any justice. An older child with artistist ability would love turning these black & white images into stunning pictures. Would work great with colored pencils as the pages are much nicer than the usual "crayon" type pages of kids coloring books.

Very realistic pictures for children or adults to enjoy coloring to their heart's delight. Focus can be realistic or fantasy colors. Nicely done.


5 out of 5 stars If you like horses You'll love this book   October 22, 2007

This is a very good coloring book. John Green is an excellent artist and with a little colored pencil or crayons the pictures come alive. I bought this book for myself, and I love it.


5 out of 5 stars Magnificent Horses   September 16, 2007
  6 out of 6 found this review helpful

Page after page of beautifully drawn horses in various poses, many of them are action poses.

A few of the pictures feature riders but most are just of the horses--which was my preference.

The drawings are large and easy to color, and there is also lots of background with mountains, trees, rocks and even rivers/streams.

I am an adult colorer, but I think anyone from about the age of six would enjoy coloring in this book.

I highly recommend it.
