About this book

My Sweety Coloring Book is a short children's activity book by Karen R. Hurd. The catalogue describes it as a follow-up to her popular book for adults and children, My Sweety, the heartache of loving a deer.

Its stated purpose is practical. It aims to teach children which animals they need to fear and which ones can be their friend, while they color Karen's artwork. The description calls the artwork magnificent, which is our own catalogue's wording and not an outside review.

The catalogue lists the book at 36 pages. It is a coloring book, so expect pages to color rather than a long text.

Readers

Who it is for

This book is for children who like to color, and for parents or teachers who want a simple way to talk about wild animals. It is the companion to the author's larger book about a mule deer, so readers of that book may want to see it. No outside reviews or publication details were available to us beyond the catalogue record.

Ways to use this book

Coloring before a mountain trip

Before a family drive or hike, let a child color a few pages and talk about what to do when a wild animal appears. Read the CPW feeding page together, so the rule of keeping a distance comes from the state agency and not only from a parent.

Pairing it with the larger book

Families who like this one can look at My Sweety, the heartache of loving a deer, the author's other book in our catalogue. The catalogue describes it as a book for adults and children, so you may want to read it first yourself.
