Attached to this review will be a silent flip-through of the entire coloring book so you can make an informed decision as to whether or not it will work for you.

Rather than discuss how this is like or different from the movie, I will discuss only how I feel about it as an adult coloring book.

This is a really lovely book of the Frozen characters. Most prominent are Elsa and Anna of the characters portrayed, though Olaf makes his appearance pretty often, too. There are also lots of snowflakes which makes it perfect for me as we head into the winter season. The book contains a number of silhouette designs. I’ve had a weakness for those since the iconic Barbie silhouette of the past, so I will really enjoy coloring those. There are just so many designs in this book, I can have fun playing with color on the repeating patterns and then be a little more serious in coloring the character studies.

The book has a nice heavyweight cardboard cover (front and back) which makes for a great solid surface to color on. The designs are printed on both sides of the page and the paper is not perforated. The binding is sewn rather than glued, so removing it takes only a few snips with a small scissor on a few pages.

There are 25 designs which span across 2 pages. All but 2 of these are wallpaper designs of repeating images or mirror imagine mandala-type designs. The other 2 (mirror imagine silhouette Elsa and a picture of Else and Anna with snowflakes around)do not line up well in my book and have some design lost in the binding but they are easily treated as four single-sided designs, so that is how I will color them. There are an additional 73 designs which are 1 page designs. Of those, 39 are repeating wallpaper pattern designs. There are a number of designs which are pretty but I cannot figure out how they relate to the Frozen characters. Many of the wallpaper style designs have elements that are easy to relate, so it should be a lot of fun to color them.

All of my markers bleed-through on this paper thought my Staedler triplus fineliners fared the best with more of a shadow image on the back of the page. I could still identify the color, so it merely bled less than the others. My gel pens worked fine and my coloring pencils worked fantastic very smooth and creamy on this paper.
