Our world is filled with beauty. From flowers growing wild along the road to the early morning songs of the birds. God has constructed our beautiful home so that we may find joy and happiness in our daily lives. The coloring pages in this collection cultivate the beauty of the world around us, allowing us to stop and color the flowers, while reminding us that not everything has to be rushed, and there is beauty all around us. This is a very nice, hand-drawn coloring book, suitable for children, teens, and adults. Many of the images feature crosses or churches and the details are quite extensive and unique. There are also many pictures of flowers, birds, and city landscapes. The many shapes and designs provide extra details, allowing for a multitude of different coloring options. Inspirational statements and Bible verses accompany many of the coloring pages. This brings an added positive to all of the pages and helps to remind us of the beauty that surrounds us, if we only slow down long enough to take it in. I would recommend this coloring book to anyone looking for a unique coloring experience.

The Parables of Jesus Coloring Book and Devotional by Laura James and Katara Washington Patton7/1/2017 This stunning coloring book is composed of 46 inspiring parables designed to help Christians know how God expects them to live their lives. The coloring pages themselves correlate to the story on the page ahead of it, allowing for a coloring page per story. Take a moment to learn from these parables and color these stunning images. I thought that this was an interesting idea for a coloring book. There are many different devotionals out there, but this is the first coloring book devotional I have ever seen. Sometimes these lessons are hard to keep with us during our busy days, running to and fro trying to get things done, being able to color an image relating to the devotional that you just read can make it easier to remember what you have just read. The images themselves remind me of illustrations from the medieval period. I found this to be very interesting because it fits with the stories, but is not a common style in today's day and age. I am on the fence about this coloring book. I want to say that I liked it, and I did in a lot of ways, but I did not enjoy coloring the images, as much as I have with other coloring books. I believe this is because of the way that the pages are set up, in the medieval style that throws me. Although, I was happy to see that this coloring book works well with a variety of mediums, crayons, colored pencils, markers, etc. I used a wide variety when coloring my first of many pictures. I eventually decided that I preferred to use colored pencils, but this is my usual medium when coloring. I would recommend this novel to anyone looking for something new in the devotional world, who also enjoys coloring.

As a mother, life can be hectic, and it can be difficult to slow down and relax. This collection of beautiful coloring pages help to bring comfort and encouragement, while inspiring and reminding you of your wonderful purpose and of your loved ones. Filled with beautiful coloring pages and inspiring quotes and scriptures, this coloring book is a perfect way to turn down the chaos and relax. I found this coloring book to be quite a delight. Each coloring page is filled with intricate designs, usually encompassing flowers and wonderful quotes or scripture that reminds you of the beauty and importance of being a mother. I really liked how each quote was also added to the backside of its coloring page so that it continued to be easy to read. I love how the intricate designs were able to provide a great amount of detail but were not chaotic or overwhelming. I believe this coloring book would make a great gift, any time of year, but also a great buy for oneself, just because. I would recommend this coloring book to mothers everywhere, as well as anyone looking for a great way to show their mother how much she means to them, and how much they are appreciated.
