This coloring book is completely unique. Every image here came from someone's photo of their pet. That photo was then turned into line art and a border put around it that is exclusive to each pet's page. Then the pet's name is added, which can also be colored in.The result is a totally personalized experience for each person and their pet. Something you can't find anywhere else.It's such a thrill to see you own pet featured in a full size coloring book. Kids and grandkids get so excited when they see their pet in a book, and love sharing it with their friends.
