Hi all- I have emailed the ebook to everyone who posted that they could not open it. Some of my emails bounced back; if you have not yet recieved it your email account was likely over quota, clear it out and contact me through here: http://www.raisingsmallsouls.com/meet-ellen-c-braun/
I couldn’t download it for some reason. So my son didn’t get to do it. Thanks anyway. Lisa
I love your coloring pages for me…very therapeutic….the kids on the other hand have not yet developed the attention span required. They would appreciate ( so I am told ) pages with horses for one and gorillas for the other! LOL
My son thought it was neat after they were colored. Thank you very much. We both had fun coloring together.
I hvae 4 girls, ages 12, 6, 5 and 2. They all loved coloring the designs to see who’s would be the “best.” Everything in my house is a competition, but it gives me about an hour of quiet time to get some work done or some Mommy time. I’ve actually been able to read a book for fun during the daylight. Thanks for the books and I look forward to more. Again, with 4 girls, anything “foo-foo” would be a great addition. They love animals, fairies, etc. I enjoyed coloring the designs. Reminded me of Salvador Dali.
They all love them!! Just the calming activity, when the day is getting crazy!! Thank you.

My oldest son loves them! My youngest son tolerates them. He is more of a “hands on” learner and to sit and color, just isn’t his thing. When he is in the mood, he does well though.
I acutally got to have some peace and quiet the other morning.
Thanks much,
Leah
Hi Ellen, love the ’24 hours of peace and quiet’, all of us, me and the children loved doing the colouring. I work in a primary school and would love it if i could please use these for our ‘lunch club’. this is a place for the children who need quiet time to come, and drawing/colouring are amongst their favourite tasks. thanks. Mitch.
My seven year old daughter (sorry-seven and a half year old daughter), upon discovering me printing the book, asked if I could make a spare copy for her (incase she loses one). She also wanted me to make copies for her classmates, friends, and teachers so that she will have pages available wherever she goes. Now that’s what I call a successful activity!
Debra, in posting number 39, said that one of her children would like to see horses in a future book. I would have to say that if you were to make a book about animals available, especially horses, that this same daughter would never leave your website!
Thanks for being here!

Very interesting and inspiring! I would ask for more “traditional” geometrical patterns in perhaps a follow-up? There are so many interesting shapes and patterns woven into architecture around the world (take Middle Eastern mosques and synagogues for example); I had a book full off these patterns once. I would hand them out to my students (7 year olds) upon completing their classwork; like a treat at the end of the week. It was quite appreciated.
We are about to embark on a two-week trip to Connecticut to visit my sister. We are driving from Louisiana. That is a long time in the van for 5 children. When I saw the coloring book I was overjoyed. I downloaded and printed the book and showed it to the children. They are excited about coloring the pages with brand new boxes of color pencils and seeing the designs and can not wait to start the trip.
I love this coloring book! I have four children they love it. We take it with us to restraunts to stay busy. We also have fun just coloring at home. I have been searching for something just like this. Thanx
I was able to download the book, however the first page(cover) printed blurry patterns. The rest of the pages were clear and not blurry at all. I wonder why.
Thanks.
Wow! What a resource! I’ve got to get more black toner for our printer!
My 11 and 7yo love the little designs, but there are only a few pages that my 3yo can work with easily. I suppose I could try enlarging the little ones…
Oh, for a toner cartridge! I keep promising, “Someday soon, your prints will come…”

Thank you for sharing your gifts and talents!
I printed a copy of these pages out to take on vacation with us. We didn’t get them out until the trip home, but it was definitely worth it! Even I got involved and colored one.
Thanks!

My son loved it. Thanks so much for offering this. It is very appreciated.
Thank you ~ It is so refreshing to have something available for budget conscious people that is so nicely designed! I have four kids, aged 13 to 6, and they all loved them, the big surprise being that I actually got hooked sitting down to color with them!
Thanks for the great coloring book. My 3 ages 9,7,5 were fighting over the few pages I printed out. We do a few each day To make it last.
My kids loved the coloring pages!!! My son especially loved how they popped out of the page at him.
Thanks!
Thank you so much, my kids just loved just how intricate they could color… what a marvelous idea!
The 24hr of peace and quiete was amazing. My kids are 2 and 4 and loved them, but the one i think got them most out of them was my husband. He saw me printing off a page for me and the kids and asked that i print one for him to, so we got to sit down as a family and color to gether.
Thank you form the bottem of my heart.
Thanks so much. Would love to see a coloring book of famous people (such as presidents, artists…)
The cooloring book was a great hit. I printed it out for my 7 year old nephe who is staying with me while my brother is in Iraq. He is having much fun
thanks
Thank you so much for The 24 hours of peace and quiet, from 3 years old to 14 years old the kids loved these pages… I run a home based family Child Care and had 2 older children this week as well as my teenage daughter.. they all had a great time colouring these pages.
Thank you again
All the best

My daughter is considering it *L*, but I think it’s wonderful. When she realizes I don’t care if she does it or not she’ll love it.
I got the coloring book for my class at school BUT my youngest(age 13)saw me printing the pages and was jealous. He just loves doing the pages and wants me to laminate the finisheed pages so he can hang them in his room.He is talking about making a quilt like collage with them. I am so happy I found your address. Thank you.
I was unable to download the file.

They loved it, judging from the popularity of this item I am sure they will love the next one too. I have three girls ages 7,9,10 and one boy age 5, so I think the cut out dolls and airplanes would be popular in this house.
Thanks!
Ellen, my boys really enjoy mazes & dot-to-dots. I would love to see a book of that sort. They are almost 7 and almost 5.
I have 7 children and they were all excited to sit down and start coloring in their books. My 4 youngest (ages 5-8) ask me if they can color in their books rather than taking naps as long as they are still and quiet. This coloring book has provided our family with some positive quiet time and the children are so proud of their designs!
My daughter likes the coloring pages. My son would probably go for the logic puzzles and the mazes. Thanks for asking!
My son, age 7, really likes mazes. I would love to surprise him with some to do everyday as he wishes. Coloring airplanes would be great also. He, as all boys do, loves cars and “monster trucks”, so something to do with those would be good as well.
Thanks for the wonderful job your doing!!
My girls really like the coloring pages. Please do more:
-Print-&-Color Paper Dolls
- Pring-&-Color Paper Airplanes
- Mazes
- Dot-to-Dots
Thank you!
Thanks Lisa,
The boys 9 and 11 really liked them.
Ellen, my boys are 10 & 7. They’d be interested in any of these books:
- Print-&-Color Paper Airplanes
- Mazes
- More Coloring Designs
- Logic Puzzles
- Origami
Thanks for your efforts!
Blessings,
Linda
