A lot of my friends see me as a big kid, but I am not ashamed of it. They are right, and it is something that I’m actually proud of. I love all kinds of kid things. I love Marvel action figures, toy cars, running and playing in the mud, and rolling downhill. Most of all, however, I like children’s coloring books. I like almost any kind of coloring book that I can find. I have cartoon coloring books, Pokemon books – you name it and I probably have it. I am not just a collector either. A lot of adults who have coloring book collections do not draw in them. They keep them pristine so that they will be worth more money. I believe in enjoying them, however. I don’t care if it destroys their value. Coloring is half of the fun!
A lot of people wonder why an adult would love a kids coloring book so much. It is hard for me to answer this question. Few people really understand the sources of their passions, and confusion on the subject is the norm. I think that it is because I have so many kids coloring book memories. I remember when I was young, my parents would take coloring book pages that I drew on and paste them up on the refrigerator. They were so proud of me, and I was so proud to be noticed. A lot of people would comment on how good my coloring book art was. They actually expected me to become an artist!
In the end, I did become an artist. You would expect that to be the end of my coloring book obsession, but it was only the beginning. You see, art is stressful for me sometimes. It can be a difficult career, and you have to constantly strive to get everything right. Pulling out a child’s coloring book, however, helps me get back to the source of my art. It helps me rediscover the fun that originally got me excited about being an artist. After all, if you don’t love what you do, why do it? I have met so many artists that are dour and serious about their work. They believe art is a higher calling, and everything that they do has deep meaning to it. If they would pull out a coloring book now and then, I think they would enjoy their lives more. I know I do.

Barbie books come in many different forms. Whether you want an entertaining story for your child or whether you want to get the low-down on this classic doll, there is a publication out there that will suit your needs. Following are some examples of outstanding Barbie books for sale.
Coloring books are not usually on my mind when someone mentions Barbie books. However, these collections are wonderful tools for developing fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Your child’s artistic imagination can go wild through a Barbie doll coloring book and its images.
Story time will be a real treat for your little girl if you use a child’s Barbie book that offers a wonderful story along with the image of her favorite doll. I love the Barbie in the Nutcracker movie and I was thrilled to find a copy of this Barbie book in print while I was shopping online.
Books for children are wonderful but Barbie books aren’t just for kids. There are some serious texts that offer a plethora of information on this well-loved doll for girls. Avid collectors can find a lot of helpful resources in various Barbie books that are available online and in stores.
My personal favorite is written by Sarah Sink Eames. My primary interest is in fashion, collecting and, well, money. Sarah’s Barbie book is a fantastic resource for a person like me. I can’t think of a more convenient way to find the information I need about choosing, buying and selling valuable Barbie clothing.
The pictures in this publication make this one of the most interesting Barbie books on the market. I could spend hours just browsing through the pages, looking at all of the breathtaking fashions showcased in the text. Images and fashion go hand-in-hand and this book really does a great job with the photographs.
The writing is another factor that makes Sarah’s publication my favorite among the Barbie books available for sale. I find her writing to be conversational, comfortable and very informative. It would be easy to write a very cut-and-dry version of Barbie’s fashions. Sarah makes the information accessible and entertaining.
Other Barbie books have a lot to offer fans of this favorite toy for girls as well. There are plenty of publications that give an in-depth history and development of this classic doll over time. Just as we grow up (but never grow out of Barbie), the Barbie books grow up as well.
