7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. no coloring pages included; just broken links to sign up for spammy mailing listsBy Cordelia L.This ebook is not meant for reading or coloring. Its meant to trick you into signing up for a mailing list where content farms and desperate self-published authors hock their mediocre books in the hopes youll increase their sale rankings through free purchases and reviews. Its super scammy and an insult to buyers.As with every other ebook Ive reviewed from this publisher. the text was outsourced to a content farm or freelancer who writes an essay-style intro about the topic. similar to what your 4th grader would write for Common Core. They use the exact same text in every one of their coloring books. The art they use is clipart. stock photos. and pieces they stole from other artists--none of which are ever credited. Ive included samples of the coloring cutouts included in this "preview" which show the small images provided in the ebook. which are all obviously taken from multiple sources (I reverse image searched to find them) and low quality.Since the link to the coloring pages email list is broken. theres no way to tell if the full resolution images are any better quality. but the included images are low quality. While the coloring page link was suspended by the ISP (very telling). the link to the "I Just Read It" book club will in fact sign you up to receive even more discounted. poor-quality books from content farms and desperate authors. Thats the goal of these scammy publishers: they create mediocre content to get you to sign up for more mediocre content which they use to sell their mailing list services to mediocre authors or other content farms. The actual content they produce is garbage. and its completely unrelated to the book you found the link in.***** AS OF THIS WRITING. YOU CANNOT ACTUALLY GET ANY "FOREST ANIMALS" COLORING PAGES THROUGH THE PURCHASE OF THIS EBOOK *****DISCLAIMER: As a broke college student. I depend on honest reviews so I dont waste money on bad products. I want to return the favor by being honest in my own reviews. even if I have received an item at a discount. I only purchase and review items I plan to actually use. Please note that this product was provided with a promotional discount in exchange for a review. Neither the seller nor the discount affected my opinion of the item.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. The "Look Inside" preview before you buy feature is useless.

I was under the impression that this would be a full digital copy of the coloring book but its only a small selection. Its a limited preview of images that could be in the actual coloring book. You receive a digital version that contains 13 pages of into/ads/index and then 14 pages of images. Although I do not know how youd go about actually coloring any of the 14 images included in the preview. There isnt a print button or option to download the designs. I suppose I could late a screen shot and then try to print that out. But it would be quite fuzzy and hard to color.There is the option to download other images which you can then print out and color. The thing is. after giving your name and email address. youre able to download images from 6 different books. But this one isnt one of them... so Im really just confused.The "Look Inside" preview before you buy feature is useless. It does not show any actual images from the book which is a let down. I fail to understand the point of even including that feature with this items information since it provides no insight into the actual "coloring book". It will not show you what you are buying.The images are cute although I feel like Im seeing the same ones over and over from this company. Most of the designs look to be too intricate and detailed to be able to color in though. Its definitely for adults. I wouldnt recommend this one for children. Overall. its an okay "preview" of a "coloring book". Id still probably recommend just finding some free coloring pages online that you can print out. Seems like an easier and cheaper option to be honest.I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest opinion. BUT it is MY opinion and I havent been paid by the seller to leave a particular review. I rely on product reviews when shopping on and appreciate when there are honest opinions to help make my decision. I try to give back to the community by providing a useful review myself.The opinions represented are always my own. Irsquo;m a real live person currently sitting on my couch typing this out. I do not leave a good review if I dont feel the product deserves it. A five star review was not promised or guaranteed prior to purchasing.What the stars in my review mean:5 stars - I absolutely adore the product and would buy it over and over again!4 stars - Product is good. has some minor issues. but I might buy it again if need be.3 stars - Product has issues but still works. Would not purchase it again.2 stars - Product has major problems and does not work as promised.1 star - I would not buy this product and/or recommend it to friends and family1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. ★ ★ THE COLORING BOOK ★ THAT WASNT ★ ★By DeeDeepThis is a Book Of Beautiful Animal Pictures. Indeed. But. this is Not What Id Consider an Adult Coloring Book. Its More of an Infomercial For the Real Coloring Books. You Can Buy and Youre Directed Elsewhere. It Does Explain Why Coloring Books are Therapeutic for Adults. DUH!!! Thats a Space Filler. Youd Be Better to Go to Dollar Tree Buy a Real Adult Coloring Book at the Register for $1.00. They Had Some Nice Ones. When I Was There and At Least You Havent Wasted Your Time on a Coloring Book-That Isnt. You Can Also Go to the Google Play Store Download Some Great Adult Coloring Book Apps. with Beautiful Pictures and Those are Really Fun Therapeutic. I Know Reviewers Have Given This 5 Stars. but I Cant Honestly Do That.I Received this Kindle Edition for my Review. Thank Goodness. Im Sure No One Would Want to Pay For it. These are My Opinions Mine Alone. Thank You For Reading.
