The Anti-Coloring Book (1st) 
By:  Susan Striker and Edward Kimmel
Description:  
The first in the Anti-Coloring Book® series. Ordinary coloring books cheat children. They inhibit a child’s natural inventiveness with drawings that simply require him or her to color within the lines someone else has drawn. The Anti-Coloring Book® was designed as an antidote to traditional coloring books, offering children the chance to create their own images. It was the first alternative drawing book, as much fun for children as it was good for them. Each irresistible scene is designed specifically to set free the magic of a child’s imagination and offers limitless possibilities. Mind-ticklers all, they provide a fantasy playground that fosters healthy, active self-expression.

Pages include:
- A group of explorers found a rare bird deep in the jungle. They sent back this drawing of the bird sitting in a tree. (Try your hand at this one, or see what others have done – click on the link to your left)
