I have received this book from netgalley for my honest review. I love dover publications books! This number coloring book is great for children of all ages, but many made for children ages 4-8 to work on colors and numbers. Highly recommended. Great fun for the little ones.

I think kids would really like this book - I know I did! It's so nice to just sit back and color by number sometime.

This book is ideal to practise colouring within the lines and a perfect way for early learners to learn both their colours and numbers in a creative, fun way.

The illustrations are crisp, large and happy. There is a colour pallet on each page with numbers 1-10 that makes colouring the animals super easy. 32 animals are included in the book. Kids will spend quality time creating their own colourful masterpiece and discover that it is as easy as 1, 2, 3. I highly recommend this book.

Let's be completely honest here, I really only requested <em>Color by Number Animal Friends </em>by Dover Publications for one reason. There's a fox on the cover. And I'll admit that there's something truly interesting about requesting a digital version of a coloring book. Half of me genuinely wondered whether I could print it out just to actually get a chance at using it.

I genuinely loved paint by numbers as a kid. Even now, as an adult, I still find these sort of coloring books immensely satisfying. I imagine that it has something to do with my obsessive need for everything to be basically perfect with accurate patterns and symmetry. I actually <em>hate </em>adult coloring books because I find them so difficult to adequately keep a pattern with.

This is a simple coloring book that uses small circle splotches at the top and bottom of the pages to indicate which color matches which number. And, honestly, I found it was a lot of fun. The artwork is very cute and not over the top at all. It's definitely something worthwhile to get a young kid. And...there's a fox on the cover. So I extra love it.
