This book is just for me because I love coloring small and detailed drawings. I think big books with large empty areas are difficult to color. We do this coloring thing to calm ourselves and enjoy small accomplishments. I'm definitely buying this one!
Happy to see this new work! For me, it's just perfect because I don't always want to do whole pages. and when I take them again, I no longer use the same colors and it's frustrating. Thank you for this great idea!
I am pre-ordering this today. A must have. I love the way you draw birds and houses. I wish you could do a book that could combine them in a country setting with a few more surprises. Thank you for keeping your books family friendly!!!!
As most of you do, I have all of Johanna's books and I pre-ordered this back in July!! I think I am going to love it and so excited to travel with this book. It's perfect for when I need a little something to do during the downtime after a long day at the beach or sightseeing. This book and a set of 48 pencils will fill the bill nicely! Thank you Johanna!
I just love your work. Thank you for making this type of book with smaller drawings that each can be completed a little faster. I hope you have another in the works.
I've got it on order! Supposed to be here as soon as released in the USA. Got your Mimi Enchanted Forest. And of course the golden Secret Garden! I love the idea that this book was done for it's size instead of just taking the other small books and just made smaller! Heard you on Emily's channel this morning!☺️🙋❤️🔥👋👋👍
Just bought Little Victories and Drawing Inky Wonderlands. Thank you Johanna for putting out colouring books, gorgeous colouring books and videos too. I have started Inky Wonderlands, finally letting myself play instead of focusing on hard core art classes. I am having the time of my life. Bless you!
Delightful idea, can't wait for the book to land in South Africa! I'll have to just be patient, maybe after January. My birthday month. Just love your style. Regards Jenny
I absolutely love your art. I have only been coloring for a couple of years and my daughter gifted me one of your books to cheer me up. It’s given me so much peace and happiness, hoping she’ll get me another one. I’m disabled and can no longer work so this makes me feel good. Thank you, you are amazing.
Love this! I just got my copy, so I know I’m late to the game but I just wanted to say thanks to Johanna. I love the small size of this because it fits into a pouch with a set of pencils and I can take it to go ❤️
I love art as a tool to cope and understand when I was a high school I love art so much I decided to become an art theapist someday it is going through my head of art theapy ever since that day. All artist on here thank you 😊
I always use felt tips and never have bleeding, the paper is very good quality in my opinion. Tho don’t use alcohol based pens, those do bleed (long live the pen test page😅)
This is what might help me with my current coloring block... Whenever I pick up a page right now, it overwhelms me. Been trying to finish a double spread in one of Kerby Rosanes' books and it's way too much for me for some reason, it's taking me months now. I can't even get myself to color in my favourite book - Ivy and the Inky Butterfly :(
Kerby's books can definitely be intimidating! It can seem like you'll never finish a page, let alone a double page spread! But if you keep doing it little by little, eventually you will get it done! I love to color very detailed and intricate pages so I'm used to it taking a while to finish a page or 2 page spread, but I just break it down into parts in my mind and do each part until I'm done. And I take breaks whenever I need to so I don't feel overwhelmed or pressured to get it done. Sometimes it takes me days to finish one part, but I just work on it as much as I can and as much as I feel like I can handle. I used to feel like I needed to get a certain amount done by a certain time and I started not enjoying my coloring. But now I just go at my own pace and don't put pressure on myself and I enjoy coloring much more. And I tell myself, even if I never finish this page that's totally fine! There are no rules except for the rules we make for ourselves, and sometimes we can be too hard on ourselves and need to loosen up on those rules! 😊❤
You are so right about the 'time express, so many of us (ME) put ourselves on. I got so disgusted with myself yesterday, when I was pressurizing myself to finish at least a small portion of a beautiful page in Rita Berman's 'Africa' book!! I finally put it down and said to myself 'Come back to this when you feel more relaxed!!' LOLOL! Lynn in NYC @@silvers_ink
I agree with @nicole_silvers! I stopped enjoying coloring because I was putting pressure on myself and timelines that weren't achievable. I was looking at social media too much and wanted to achieve what I saw others doing, especially how quickly they were able to get a page finished. I got to a point where I couldn't color at all for almost a year! I finally stopped watching so much social media and that helped me stop putting pressure on myself. Then I was able to color again and enjoy it! Sometimes I just get a hat colored or a few flowers~but I now enjoy it so much more! I hope some of this helps you. 😊
@@blacktiger675 Yes! And ya know, social media can be helpful because sometimes I use it to get ideas and inspiration from looking at other people's finished pages, but if I do that too much, at some point it becomes self defeating because I can't think of my own ideas and I feel bad if I can't achieve something that I see others doing! So I think it can be helpful but you just don't want to do it too much! I get color palette ideas online too!
Guys, turns out I had an ADHD burnout and once I complained about it, it got easier to color now, idk why 😅 haven't colored in months as much as I did those past 2 days
Great book Johanna. I waiting when you choose best of the pest pages all your books started Secret Garden and finish last book. Thats gonna be awesome. Really waiting that book Small Victories. I mean that you choose your favorite pictures from each book and put them together.
Bonjour Johanna je suis en Belgique il est très beau et en petit format c est très bien je commande vos livres sur Amazon en général j espère le retrouver 😊
Hello Johanna. I would be very happy if you would publish another new book with underwater pictures. I love the underwater world. I wish you a beautiful day.😊
I wish I could buy the PDF versions and print them on watercolor paper on my laser printer feed through so I can enjoy trying various mediums. Then I can also print them out again if I mess it up. A PDF with reprint rights for personal use (non-commercial) use should be easy to create from her base drawings. Imagine how expanded the customer audience could be if we could choose our printing medium and have more flexibility with sizes….We could even print out some selections on poster board size printout - attach it to poster board for stability - and turn it into a family art project like a 1000 piexw jigsaw puzzle is shared by a family - everyone works on a section.
Hi, Johanna and everyone reading! I'm in the Phils. Johanna, your books are known for their wonderful paper. If I buy your books from Amazon, will the books have the paper quality you approved? I've read some bad reviews of Amazon paper in coloring books, so I'd like that clarified, please, if you know?
Now that the bookdepository website is closed, I don't know where else I can buy this book with cheap shipping. By the way, guys, does anyone know of a replacement website for bookdepository?
@@lhasalynn2091 yeah i did too. 😝 I prefer markers due to arthritis, less grip strength needed and more area gets done quicker but i can still colour in. I adore her books though and tried the markers without thinking…..
Ditto Arthritis ("Old Age"--are we having fun, yet??")! Considering how many Baby Boomers are discovering coloring, there should be a very healthy market for coloring books that are one-sided and good-quality paper for our painful hands and fingers!. (Have you tried "Color It? They have just the perfect books for markers. But I just remembered--they are in the USA only, I believe. ) Anyway! Happy coloring! Lynn in NYC@@carrie4910
I was about to get this from Target last night but saw its double sided.. Not good for markers lol I wish she would make a book that was single side only so you can use many mediums.
Well I must admit I was disappointed that you didn't talk at all thru this flip thru. Petty, I know. I can't wait to get mine, I pre-ordered it the day it was first available to pre order last spring! Have you given any thought to releasing your own brand of colored pencils??
So happy you made a small book but so sad that some pictures are ruined by the spine of the book😭 i hope that the Dutch version doesn't has that...but really a supernice book
hello je suis francaise j'aimerais savoir que vous pourrez nous conseiller quelle marque pour coloriser comme j'ai acheté un de vos livres c'est la maison des secrets j'adore !!!!!merci de votre réponse

Omg the bonsai castle trees!!! ❤❤❤❤ brilliant! Wow what a beautiful book! And so many images! Such a treat! I can’t wait to get my hands on one
This looks lovely, Johanna, I can't wait to get my hands on it! Thank you for the flipthrough, I was curious about its content.
sosososo adorable every creative small picture. The best of the best Teacher Johanna. love your drawings very much. God bless you and your kids
This little book is amazing. Got to have this in my life. The images are beautiful. ❤
I just love your work. Thank you for making this type of book with smaller drawings that each can be completed a little faster. I hope you have another in the works.
Love this, perfect for when I have little time to do coloring and such super images, a really nice variety!

Thank You❣, Johanna, for this flip-through for this book. The anticipation was building, but now the wait for my copy will be a lot easier. 🥰
Beautiful images to colour. I love it. I am looking forward to my copy. I am glad I pre-ordered it.
This is going to be a fun lil’ book! Can’t wait for it to arrive this coming week! Fun Fun Fun! 😎
This looks like a small book with a gigantic potential to color in such a wide variety of subjects. Thanks! Lynn in NYC
I just love what you said inspired the sausage dog page. I love those dogs. I must color my page very pretty now.
Thank you so much for this book. I love colouring it, i feel relax and i "escape" from this world while colouring it.
I can't wait to get my hands (and my pencils!) on this book!
Delightful idea, can't wait for the book to land in South Africa! I'll have to just be patient, maybe after January. My birthday month. Just love your style. Regards Jenny
Thank you Johanna. This is exactly the book I needed. :)

My preordered book should be here next week. What a cute book. Looking forward to coloring in it.
Great peek at what’s to come so excited to start coloring this book❤
I pre-ordered way back in/around April, when you first mentioned this book. 😅 I can't wait to receive it. Love your work btw! ❤
I love your latest book Johanna. It works very well for busy moms like me who only have a few minutes to color.
Awesome! Looking forward to getting my copy!
Eu amo seus livros, sao perfeitos ❤❤❤

A little treasure this one.
I just preordered the book last night! Can’t wait to receive it
Preordered it awhile ago…looks like a fun pick up and go book. I know I will get many hours of coloring enjoyment from it.
Love this! I just got my copy, so I know I’m late to the game but I just wanted to say thanks to Johanna. I love the small size of this because it fits into a pouch with a set of pencils and I can take it to go ❤️
I've heen asking you for this for years Johanna. Thank you! ❤😊
I just go mine this morning! I LOVE it Johanna!
What a very beautiful pictures! Great! 😊❤
I love art as a tool to cope and understand when I was a high school I love art so much I decided to become an art theapist someday it is going through my head of art theapy ever since that day. All artist on here thank you 😊
I want to be surprised when it arrives, so I will hold off watching this.
She went thru it so fast that I've already forgotten most of them! Fastest fllip thru ever!
Cannot wait, love every page.
Lindo trabalho... parabéns🎉🇧🇷
This is gonna be one of my favorites.
Absolutely adore this new book from you Johanna! 👏🏻
I pre-ordered months ago and I can't wait for its arrival! 😊
Mines coming tomorrow! So excited! Not a fan of animals with flowers in them, but that’s ok, won’t stop me from loving this lil book!
Very cute fun book! I juat pre ordered mine today.
Love this book. Very nearly finished it. I treated myself to a second World of Flowers and loving that more than the first one.❤❤❤
Holy smoke, i just bought this book today and now I am seeing it in a video!
So beauty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to wonder why it’s still not single sided. I really do not want to mess up an image because I don’t always want to use pencils.
She have single sided books. Artist collection.
Amen!!
I always use felt tips and never have bleeding, the paper is very good quality in my opinion. Tho don’t use alcohol based pens, those do bleed (long live the pen test page😅)
@@VerrikaEvadidn't found anything like this on her page. 🤔
i use thick paper to print from book on to paper

Can't wait for my pre-ordered copy.
Guess what Santa's bring me this year. Absolutely love her work. I just need to be patient.
Absolutely gorgeous!! ❤❤❤
I guess the lives were only on Facebook this year. I know they aren't live on youtube but I was hoping to see them.
I agree. I don’t have a Facebook account but I hoped Johanna would post them later on You Tube. Apparently not😢
Love it, love it, love it!!! ❤❤❤
Beautiful!
Que lindo!!!❤

Like it much...so cute the turtle! 😍
Ooohhhh, need this!
Just wondering if it also comes in a single sided print option? So i could use markers without worrying about bleed through?
Yes, I ruined a page on the other side accidentally by jumping in with alcohol markers! Dumb! LOL! Lynn in NYC

That is when you just order two copies so you can have front and back pages to use markers for…, there is always a solution to the problem. 😊
LOLOL!! Excellent solution---I was too busy being annoyed with myself to come up with that sensible idea! Lynn in NYC@@lilmonument
Honestly, I wish all my coloring books for the size
I just ordered the book!
Hi please create a book dedicated to eatables; fruits,vegetables, pastas,cakes etc
cant wait!!!
Cant wait
Amei. ❤
Dear Johanna, amo tu trabajo, pero lamentablemente no llegan a mi país tus libros, soy de Bolivia, Sud América.
What do you do with the colored pages when finished?
Leave them in the book. And if you photocopy the page and color it as a single page you keep it in a page protector in a binder. That is what I do…😊
❤
I was about to get this from Target last night but saw its double sided.. Not good for markers lol I wish she would make a book that was single side only so you can use many mediums.
Because it isn’t single sided (boo) hopefully the paper is thick enough. I will purchase it as I have all her books.
Love this book really much❤, wich all your books where available in this size...❤
I wish she do a new Christmas book
Halloween first!
