Review: A Coloring Book for an Older Child : My 4-year-old daughter has been obsessed with dolphins for the last few months. She wanted a dolphin coloring book as she was only temporarily satisfied with the dolphin coloring pages I found by going to google, clicking images, and searching on "dolphin coloring page." So, I searched amazon for a dophin coloring book and found the Whales and Dolphin Coloring Book is very different from the dolphin coloring pages you can find on google. Each picture depicts a different whale, dolphin, or porpoise and is accompanied by information about that particular animal. The editorial review says the reading level is for preschool children, but it is in fact at a much higher level. That's okay though. The point is to color. The sketches are nice. While it is a little painful to hand the book of sketches to a 4-year-old, my daughter does love the coloring book. Besides bottlenose dolphins, there are orca, striped dolphins, balean whales, and porpoises. I might have to buy another copy of this book in four or five years and see if it is less painful to hand the book to her then.
