This was so pretty to use on my phone and it would make an amazing physical gift. Lots of beautiful beaches.

Similar to the National Parks book, I found this was an interesting colouring book concept, and that the illustrations that go with each beach presented were amazing and so detailed. There are so many things to see and find in each one. The text was well balanced, but I did find myself wondering how all of these beaches were chosen. There were many from Mexico, one from Canada, and then the majority from the US. And that's fine, but I felt like it maybe should be more focused or clear that this is across North America and maybe be chosen based on Dowdle's own experiences. The chosen beaches were more of a mish mash to me than the parks because of it.

I still think that, as a colouring book, the pages that represent the actual art are harder or less engaging as colouring pages per se. But they do have complete lines to separate out parts of the illustration which does make for clear colour delineations. There is nothing worse than the colouring books that just forget to end lines so that things flow into one another and you have to either pen in a line or flow the colours into one another in a messy way.

Definitely a good colouring book and I certainly enjoy the originals. It would be one of those colouring books that you colour and keep.

Thank you to NetGalley for this beautiful and intricately detailed ebook - Beautiful Beaches by Eric Dowdle in exchange for a honest review. The pictures in this book are outstanding with minute details. I loved that some of these beaches are the present and some are from the past. The beaches are all colored in and then there is an identical page- whereyou can use the same colors or different ones to illustrate your blank page.. Some beaches have additional blank pages to color also . I highly recommend this beautiful book with many of the beaches I have visited throughout the world.

We have another winner from Eric Dowdle in the form of the Beautiful Beaches colouring book.

The book is filled with beautiful beach scenes containing trivia regarding the area. You get your very own intricate blank version of the scenes to colour in.

This will provide you with hours of entertainment and will let your creativity flow.

I loved the variety of the beaches included in this book and thought the inspiration illustrations were absolutely beautiful. You would definitely get your moneys worth from this book as each design would take hours to colour in. I love that the original artwork is provided as inspiration which takes the stress out of deciding which colours to use.

My only complaint is that the designs are too intricate for me personally so I could definitely see myself getting bored before finishing a page however this is purely personal preference.

I wondered how this book was going to show differences between different beaches and I wasn't disappointed. Every detailed picture has a short description, along with drawings that include plants, animals, buildings, and people having fun in various ways. This was so much fun!
