Miniature Enchanted Forest: A Pocket-Sized Adventure Coloring Book

I looked at the other reviews for this little book. Yes I can see what they are saying about the pictures being tiny, however use fine liners to do the tiny bits. I love it’s portable to take anywhere you like.

I preordered this title a while ago but was a little dubious of how it would be due to being slightly disappointed with the Secret Garden miniature.As it turns out, I needn’t have worried as this one is perfect. Images have been thoughtfully remastered to fit the page appropriately as opposed to simply shrinking the original to make it fit as it seems was the case with SG. There doesn’t appear to me so much of a gap in the middle of double pages spreads where the two pages meet either which I was really pleased about.The images are clear and not overly small, making them easy to colour. The paper is of a high standard and only slightly textured with a very fine tooth, just enough to grip colour without leaving white areas where the colour had been unable to sink into the grain. This of course means that pencils lay initial colour down with ease. They layer well and blend beautifully. (I used polychromos in the image pictured.My only small gripe was that a few of the pages were stuck together where they hadn’t quite been cut properly. However, this wasn’t a major issue and nothing that a sharp craft knife couldn’t rectify.Overall, I am really pleased with this book and am looking forward to recolouring some of my absolute favourite along with the two beautiful never before released images.I feel that working in this book will be far more enjoyable that Miniature Secret Garden and I for one appreciate the small but needed delight tweaks.

It's a lovely little book, but the illustrations are too tiny for my rubbish old eyes, and I am struggling to colour inside the lines.Also, if I'm honest, it's a little too leafy for me. I need more landscapes and buildings, and fewer piles of leaves or flowers. I'd still recommend it though!

Comparing with J.B’s previous miniature book “Secret Garden” it appears that more care has been put into scaling down the illustrations appropriately, with only the odd leaf or petal being difficult to colour at all. The miniature Enchanted Forest feels much more streamlined and do-able in terms of colouring, some of the lines are a bit thicker in places and from first appearances some illustrations seem to have been reworked/cut down rather than just shrunk to size like Secret Garden. Similarly the paper feels of a better quality compared to the previous miniature book. The first photo included is in natural room light and the two other photos are taken using a flash.I’m excited to begin this miniature colouring book, whilst the tiny illustrations are still not for the faint-hearted, they are beautiful, intricate and delicate. I am pleased that feedback from the previous miniature book appears to have been taken onboard.Overall I am so glad I purchased this colouring book and would recommend others who are hesitant to give J.B’s miniature’s a second try.

This is a beautiful little book for those odd colouring moments - ideal for trying different colour combinations and styles on small pages. Reduced from originals to a tiny “font”, so drawings are tiny but if you love minute details then this is great. Above all, paper quality is superb, lending a quality feel.

Small and cute the paper is lovely to colour on,very well put together.

The pictures are lovely and the size of the book is great for portability but the magnification of the pictures should be slightly larger- some of the spaces to be coloured are smaller than the tip of my gel pens!

A very beautiful little book

Such a beautiful little book. I have a large size in another theme. I love the texture for very smooth colouring.

I love this one. The thickness of the pages is good, and it comes with a bunch of beautiful coloring pages. However, all the coloring pages have very small details, so something to keep in mind if you’re buying/gifting this to someone, as it will be more difficult to color than some other books out there. Also, being small makes it way more cute :)

Adorei, tamanho perfeito pra viagens.

Questo libro è una delle cose più belle che abbia mai visto, lo adoro!

Love it
