Review Some consider adult coloring books a money-making fad branded as therapy, while others consider it therapeutic. According to the Daily News, however, Quarto Publishing Group USA sold four million copies while Dover Publications sold five and half million copies in the past year looks like the fad isn't going anywhere anytime soon. But now there s an adult coloring book that combines all of your favorite things Jewish history and art! It s called Shalom Coloring written by Judy Dick and illustrated by Freddie Levin. --Kveller Years have passed and coloring books have returned but in a 21st century way. Shalom Coloring by Freddie Levin and Judy Dick is a spectacular book for the Jewish home. The 34 black and white linear illustrations include Judaic motifs and symbols based on the Jewish calendar, holidays, celebrations, tradition and Jewish life. This new collection of exquisite imagery features complex illustrations and patterns that will inspire novice and expert colorists alike. To make the book more even meaningful, an inspirational quote or a brief biblical excerpt accompanies each image. Both the amateur and experienced artist will enjoy this book. They can express themselves with color and imagination, while they relax, create, escape and have fun. Although Shalom Coloring has been created for adults, we think it is also perfect for the budding pre-teen artist, allowing each to produce their own unique design and personal creation. --Kosher Eye About the Author One of Freddie Levin's earliest memories is sitting at her grandmother's kitchen table coloring with her bright and chunky crayons. Since then, she has graduated to more intricate tools, and her artwork has illustrated numerous picture books, greeting cards, and products. She is the author/illustrator of two award winning book series about drawing, 1 2 3 Draw and Draw Plus Math and Science. When not drawing and painting, she enjoys gardens, birds, yoga, Chopin and pretty much any kind of pie. Judy Dick is an author and illustrator of many books, including the Building Jewish Identity series. She studied art at both Yeshiva University and Pratt Institute, and is currently an editor at Scholastic. She looks forward to trying her hand at coloring in the intricate pages of this book.
