A cat lover's dream except for the paper quality and the pages being printed on both sides
OMG if you are a cat lover, you must get this coloring book. It is so super cute! The artwork is really fun and playful.Publishers: pleeeeeease give us better quality paper suitable for a larger variety of mediums. Think artwork here, not just passing time. My printer paper is of better quality than this paper. This book has illustrations on both sides of the paper and I personally hate that. The paper is NOT thick enough to accommodate coloring on both sides, even if you only use colored pencils.Again I will need to transfer the images somehow to a better quality paper before I color them and because of that I can't give it 5 stars!

Horrible, Thin Paper!! What a shame!!
The illustrations in this book are fun & funky but be prepared to only color one side of the page. I'm so incredibly disappointed by the quality of the paper! It's so thin that every waterbased marker I owned bled onto the back page. I used Tombow, Staedler, Stabilo, and Lyra markers and they all bled. When I ordered the Cats & Kitten coloring book, I also ordered Chang's first book and unfortunately the results were the same. I plan to cover the paper with matte gel the next time I color in hopes that this will prevent any bleeding. But I'll tell you there is no way I'm ordering her next book. Right now the market is flooded with so many coloring books that contain gorgeous illustrations and these books are at the same price point of Chang's books yet those other books (for instance Johanna Basford, Millie Marotta, Zoe de las Cases) print illustrations on quality paper. Those are the types of books I'll be buying next. Such a shame...

Best coloring pictures!!! only 1 problem..
I absolutely love this coloring book! I love every page! The pictures are easy to color and really creative. Only one problem… The pages do bleed through a little. I am using dual tip brush pens and have use them and plenty of other coloring books with no problem. The paper in this book is pretty thick so I was surprised to see that but when I color and flip the page it shows through on the backside for sure.. so I am having to skip every other picture because of this and that means I am only getting to color half the pages in the book so I am not happy about that..

Cute and original
Love the drawings. Very original. Don't see how you could color in the go, detailed designs. I like to send out to friends and family (cut out and mount on foamboard w/easel back) BUT these are double sided , not perforated and a little thinner paper, so I loose a drawing (back side) and can't use any sprays to either mount or top coat to protect or back will show through. Use a craft glue stick and works fine. Original and cut enough to go through the trouble.

Beautiful 126 page Assortment of Flora Chang's Folk Art Cat Designs – printed on both sides of non-perforated paper
The media could not be loaded. This is my second coloring book by Flora Chang. The first one was a variety of modern folk art while this book is single subject, cats and kittens in the same wonderful folk art style. This is one of my favorite styles in coloring books. They are fun and easy to color. Some of the designs have a lot of detail but for the most part, they are more open and don't require any special coloring medium in order to color them.I've been having a fun coloring these designs. As I like to use markers, I've already ordered a second book because, unfortunately, my alcohol-based markers always bleed through on not only this paper but 99% of the adult coloring books that are made. It's a problem with this book because the designs are printed on both sides of the page and using my markers means I ruin the design on the backside of the page.This is what I found in coloring and testing coloring medium in this book:126 pages of hand-drawn Cat and Kitten folk art designsDesigns are printed on both sides of the pagePaper is medium weight, white, somewhat smooth, and non-perforated.Most designs do not merge into the binding area; however,Some designs spread across two pages and merge into the binding areaGlue boundSlightly smaller than average format size with rounded cornersOpens fairly flat if you crease the spineAlcohol-based markers bleed through the page.Water-based markers had mixed results. My Tombow's did not leak through when I used the brush end. My other water-based markers did not bleed through completely but you could definitely see a shadow of the color on the backside of the page.Gel pens and India ink pens did not leak through the page.None of my gel pens leaked through and they did not require additional drying time.Coloring pencils worked well and put down good color, layered and blended fairly well. Hard lead pencils did not leave dents on the back of the page.

Perfect size, Cute Pictures! Love it!
I love this coloring book! Perfect size (see photo for comparison to standard size) It's in between the regular size and pocket size books. The pages are crisp and clear. There was some reviews of bleed through (pages are printed with design on both sides) so I posted a picture of one side colored with marker pens and the other side not colored. I have to look hard to see any traces of color from the other side. Personally I'd prefer to have only one side, and I definitely prefer perforated pages! For the non perforated pages, I deducted a star. Otherwise, this book is perfect! My favorite!

Love it, but paper is thin
I really love this coloring book; it makes me very happy. My only issue is that the paper is thinner than my other books, so my markers bleed through to the other side. This is the only book that happens to, so it's not the markers. I end up photocopying the backside of whichever one I'm going to color, so I can color the other side at some point too, but that is a bit of a hassle (and waste of paper :\ ).

What a great book!
I love this book. It is so fun with a wide variety of pictures. My only complaint is that the pages are double sided. I would prefer single sided and perforated so I could frame the great designs. Never fear, I’ve found a solution- I will just have to order another copy! I highly recommend

Beau dessin
Beau dessin mais très sommaire. Papier trop fin pour la peinture.
