Romantic Country: The Second Tale: A Fantasy Coloring Book

This is a beautiful colouring book and I was thrilled to receive it. I love the books by Johanna Basford and until recently I hadn’t found any I liked as much, but this series is lovely. They are set in an imaginary land named Cocot. It is a beautiful place full of fairy-tale castles and windmills, lakes and forests. I especially like the ducks and cats that appear on most pages and the bookshop. There is a charm and quirkiness to the drawings in these books and when colouring them they remind me of the illustrations in a children’s picture book being brought to life with colour. I love this second book even more than the first as it is so magical and detailed. There are scenes with mermaids, unicorns, fairies and witches. It really captures the imagination and lends itself to experimenting with colour, gel pens and even embellishments. The paper is also of good quality. I would recommend having a look at this book on you tube, as you can see how gorgeous it is page by page. There are some fantastic examples of finished pages on Pinterest that will give you inspiration if you are an amateur like me! If you like Johanna Basford’s Enchanted Forest (my personal favourite) this will probably appeal to you. I am eager for the publication of the third book in May.

I wasn’t sure I was going to like this book at first since the style is different to my usual and the lines are grey rather than black but I’ve actually loved it and love all the artwork. I’d like to get the other two in the series at some point. The paper is thick and good quality and the book is sturdy and feels great quality also.

This colouring book was bought as a present for my daughter-in-law, who is an expert at coloring in. She was delighted with it (she already has the 1st book) and was explaining why it was so brilliant but I don't remember all the points she made being a novice myself.

I love this colouring book it probably is one of my favorites. The images are beautiful and the paper is fantastic. To say the artist drew this all with a cocktail stick is amazing. Highly recommended.

Lots of cute illustrations. I enjoyed colouring two pages until now and love their final look. I do love this book and going to buy the other two in series soon.

Some lovely pictures to colour however my biggest issue is a lot span across two pages and it's near on impossible to get into the crease of the book to colour them properly

I have all 3 of the books in the series and I love them...you will not be disappointed. Paper is good quality and I have used pencil and watercolour brush pens... No visible change to the paper and no bleed through...not sure about permanent markers ...I haven't tried them yet.

Bought for my daughter, although she’s age 7 loves to colour in and stay in the lines, she’s delighted and can’t wait to colour in more

Las ilustraciones son preciosas, como solo Eriy sabe hacerlo, el papel es de calidad y las líneas no son muy negras, eso me gusta mucho! Llegó en excelente estado! 🙌🏻

Il est magique déjà la couverture est très belle en plus son contenu vous plaira absolument car les dessins sont plus beau de page en page. Le papier est assez épais donc aucun regret de mon achat. Je vous le recommande vivement, j'adore le colorier car il est passionnant.

I have been wanting this book for long time but the paper quality is terrible and somehow this is a smaller version. Doesn't match the size in the description. I ordered a second just in case it was some kind of error but it was the same, so I'm returning both of them

Come il primo capitolo anche questo si presenta davvero un libro da colorare meraviglioso. Penso sia uno dei migliori libri in commercio, non solo come illustrazioni ma anche come qualità della carta, adatta a diversi mezzi dalle matite colorate, ai pastelli a olio, ai pennarelli. Il libro segue il filo conduttore del viaggio di due personaggi (una bambina e una piccola oca) attraverso la magica terra di Cocot, fatta di castelli, dimore, paesaggi ma anche foreste incantate, case di streghe e luoghi di fiabe. Molto interessante l' appendice dove viene spiegata ogni illustrazione, lasciando nel lettore la sensazione di aver davvero vissuto un viaggio incantato.

Les images de ce livre sont magnifiques autant que le tome 1 ! Impossible à trouver dans les magasins près de chez moi. Livraison rapide et livre en parfaite condition. Je recommande.
