20 Adorable Little Dragons with 2 copies of each design – printed one side of the page
Adult Coloring Book: Nice Little Dragons (Volume 1)
By: Tatiana Bogema (Stolova)
Rating: 5 of 5
This is a really cute coloring book of 20 dragon designs. These are cute and fun rather than fierce. Frankly, I find them adorable and would have fun coloring them with my grandchildren (though the level is above their skill set at this time.)
Some of my dragon books are really for much older children and adults but these little cuties are not threatening at all. They are simply lots of fun to color. One of my favorites is the little dragon who seems to have caught a cold – with hot drink in hand and thermometer in its mouth.
While the designs of the dragons themselves have some detail, most of the pages are what I would categorize as fairly easy to color. There is plenty of room to add your own special touches if you wish.

20 Cute postcards inspired by Love – designs printed on one side of the card
Zendoodle Coloring: Love Notes: 20 Cards to Color and Give to the One You Love
By: Bonnie Lynn Demanche
Rating: 4 of 5
This is a cute set of postcards which deal mostly with romantic love. There are a few which may apply to other individuals but it is generally something you would color and give to your sweetheart. The back of each page is pre-set for use as a postcard. The card has a spot for a stamp and is equally divided for a written message and an address.
The designs are detailed and a few have smaller areas to color which might require the use of ultra-fine pens/markers or really sharp pencils. Crayons might be difficult to use unless you are able to sharpen them to a fairly fine point.
The binding is a notepad style where it is easy to remove pages by carefully pulling them away. They will remove in whole without any loss of designs. The paper is a lightweight card stock rather than a heavy weight postcard stock. It is white and fairly smooth to the touch.

Another laugh out loud entry in this series about the theater in Arizona (way, way, way off Broadway)
The Phantom of Oz (An Ivy Meadows Mystery Book 5)
By: Cindy Brown
Rating: 5 of 5
I have read and enjoyed all of the Ivy Meadows Mysteries and each one builds upon the ones before. While the book may be able to be read stand-along, I recommend reading the earlier books as so much in this one relies upon the relationships and characters that have come before.
Ivy Meadows (aka Olive Zeigwart in real life) becomes concerned about her best friend Candy Moonpie when Candy returns back to Phoenix in a fairly emaciated condition.
