About Amazing Georgia: A Coloring Book Journey Through

Product Description Amazing Georgia is a fun and creative coloring book journey across the 159 counties that make up this great state. Each of Georgia’s counties is celebrated with images featuring the places, animals, plants, and activities that make that county special. As well as the fun drawings, each page includes a short paragraph about the history of the area and the images that were chosen. From the wild east coast beaches of Camden County and the southern swamps of Ware County, to the rich farmland of the plains; from the picturesque Appalachian Mountains in the northern part of the state to the big cities, like Atlanta and Macon, and the historic home of our 39th president in Sumter County―Georgia is as unique as it is historic. Come along with author/illustrator Laura Murray on this journey as she shares her passion for the Peach State. You will get to know Georgia in a whole new way! Review Color your way through every county in Georgia with this coloring-book gem for all ages written and illustrated by Laura Murray. Discover exciting facts, places to explore, and rich county histories from the high country and the northeast Georgia mountains to the southern coastal area as you color and create your own Amazing Georgia. ― Marti Rosner, Georgia literacy consultant, co-author of The Slave Who Went to Congress Author/illustrator Laura Murray gives us a peach of a gift with her new coloring book, Amazing Georgia. All 159 counties are represented! Young minds and perhaps some older ones too will revel in the opportunity to try their hand at art while discovering the historical tidbits accompanying each drawing. ― Ted M. Dunagan, award-winning author of A Yellow Watermelon and three other books for middle graders in the “Ted and Poudlum” adventure series Amazing Georgia truly is amazing! Well-conceived and vivid in its imagery. I love that this coloring book is also a learning tool. This book should appeal to young and old alike. ― Donna Alvis, branch manager, Ephesus Public Library, Roopville, Georgia We at Troup County Historical Society and Legacy Museum believe that when history is made fun, it’s easier to comprehend. Amazing Georgia is the perfect combination of both. This educational new coloring book is a great blend of intriguing facts about our state along with lovely drawings of hundreds of its most special sites. We can’t wait to get coloring! ― Shannon Gavin Johnson, executive director, Troup County Historical Society and Archives About the Author Laura Murray has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in graphic design. After more than 15 years working in the corporate design world, she has turned her attention to something she loves and has been doing for as long as she can remember ― drawing. The success of Murray's coloring books― Amazing Alabama and Amazing Georgia―inspired her to look northeast and explore South Carolina.
