The Pictures are taken from Real Objects

I love gargoyles, and thought this coloring book would be great to trace for making stained glass pictures. When I received the book, there is a word or two at the bottom of each picture telling where the creature came from...a large Church in France, the Book of Kells, etc. Not only do you enjoy coloring the pages, you learn a little history too.
