Butterflies Coloring Book
This treasury of detailed, accurately rendered illustrations (including two double-page spreads) invites coloring book enthusiasts to bring over 40 species of butterflies to life in vivid color. Here are such delicately beautiful creatures as the black, salmon-orange, white and blue painted lady, the rapid-flying dogface butterfly, with wing markings that look like a poodle's profile, and a host of others: pipevine swallowtail, monarch, buckeye, white admiral, olive hairstreak, Milbert's tortoiseshell, great spangled fritillary, ruddy daggerwing, fiery skipper, mourning cloak, tiger swallowtail, red admiral, and many more, all of them found in the United States or Canada. Fact-filled captions provide information about each species' coloration, range, habitat, special characteristics, and more. All are shown in full color on the covers. An excellent source of nature illustrations for artists and craftspeople, this delightful coloring book can also be used as an accurate, inexpensive nature identification guide.

Excellent, excellent value as are all the Dover Coloring Books I have purchased. This and several other Dover books were Christmas presents for a 7 year old. She loves nature and the the detail on each page stimulates her imagination, questions arise leading to research - fun-filled learning experiences on Google. Great buddy project for adult and child. Also nice for stencils, projection work onto water color materials. A must for nature-loving, budding young artists and adults.

The butterflies are so life-like. They seem to fly off the page at you and are so easy to color.

Fantastic. These books are the best I have found to find pictures to use as templets or stencils for designs to paint on silk.

I just purchased these Dover COloring Books for my mother and she loves them. The detail is out of this world and the variety of colors you can use are only limited by your inagination. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I chose this coloring book for my five years old daughter who loves butterflies and coloring. The lines are bold and simple, yet detailed enough to get the complex coloring, if she desires. The pages also contain descriptions of each butterflies. She is now looking forward to plant flowers that will welcome the butterflies in the spring.
