The Time Chamber: A Magical Story and Coloring Book (Time Series) by Daria Song


Book Description:  Korean artist Daria Song’s sequel to The Time Garden takes readers on a visual journey into a magical nighttime world seen through the eyes of a fairy.
This second book in the bestselling Time coloring series features the voyage of a fairy who, when the cuckoo clock chimes midnight, enters the human world. To the tiny fairy, everything seems enormous and magical, from the curtains to the chandelier to a mystical rowboat that takes her further into an inky adventure. With her she packs her favorite items, which colorers can find throughout the book’s pages: an owl-feathered pen, a star-scented spray, a time tape measure…even the key to the time chamber itself!
Filled with the imaginative, intricately detailed illustrations Song’s readers have come to love, The Time Chamber presents a view of our world made new—and ready for coloring.

My Thoughts:  Not too long ago I posted about the book, Sketch.  Well, guess what?  That didn't go so well.  Then I heard about these adult coloring books.  Even though this coloring book is labeled adult, kids 5 and up could color in it.  There are small details....great for outlining.
I decided that since drawing was out of the picture (no pun intended!) I would simply go to coloring.  But I didn't want to color in a "baby" coloring book...you know the kind...the ones with big pictures and plenty of room for coloring.  When I saw this coloring book, well, it was so enticing because the characters are smallish and just right for an adult to color or outline.  So, it's kind of like drawing.  
But best of all it's therapeutic!  And now that it's getting colder and I'll have more inside time at night, this is just the right thing for me.
This book is a nice "large" size.  And the pictures are so cute... as story without words. This book would make a fabulous gift for that not so into drawing person on your Christmas list or that person who just loves to color!
