Medicinal Plants Coloring Book: A Path to Natural Healing (Dover Nature Coloring Book)

I am an Apothecarist who loves to color so when I saw this coloring book for me it was a IMMEDIATELY ADD TO CART moment. I was so excited to see this coloring book upon it's arrival. To my surprise this coloring book was better then anticipated and expected.I cannot wait to color these beautiful pages. The only thing I wish is the paper was a bit thicker and one image per side.This book is cheap enough to where I can get another one.For those who color and are into herbs or is an apothecarist this coloring book is a must have.

Love this book. Very detailed information. Love being able to color the images on the pages

Because this book presents plants from all over the world, it's not necessarily my first choice for identifying local and/or native plants for medicinal use. But the pictures are accurate (as much as they can be with simple line drawings), and for those of us who use dried herbs purchased from a supplier, we can see how the plant that produces those leaves, flowers, stems, or roots actually looks. Each page includes the common name of the plant along with the scientific name and a good description of where the plant is found, what it's medicinal characteristics are, and how it is (or has been) used. There are also words of caution where necessary and appropriate, along with a solid disclaimer in the front of the book. Colored pictures appear on both sides of the covers.

The drawings are basic but the information is educational. If you like to color and just want something pretty to do and learn at the same time, it’s a good book. The Dover coloring books overall are quality.

Gift for a scientist having to stay quiet and recuperate—something different than working, for a change. Nice graphics, good paper, relaxing, and learning something interesting without commercials. Arrived in good time, and appreciated—thank you!

I found each plants picture and identification to be so helpful in being able to find it in the wild and become more intimately educated to it's benefits to this world. Can't wait to take my time with this.

My 7 year old granddaughter developed an interest in plants when we figured out that plantain works great on her occasional rashes. The color pictures included that allow her to match colors when she's coloring the "coloring book" pictures helps her remember how the plants look. The descriptions provide good information on the plant and some of its uses. This is the first coloring book where she was very careful to match colors (no purple faces here) and stay in the lines, which tells me she loves this book. She's even blending crayon colors to match where needed. It would be great if there were a series of these instead of just one.

Bought as a gift for an experienced colorer. She likes the subject matter and the drawings. Paper quality is first class.

Entretiene y relaja pero no me sirve para lo que estoy buscando. Mejor rotulador que lápiz.

Je viens de recevoir ce livre de coloriage que j'ai commandé pour offrir. Livraison très rapide. Le livre est à la hauteur de mes espérances, couverture conforme. Je ne pourrai pas juger de la qualité du papier vu que ce livre n'est pas pour moi, mais elle me semble pas mal.Ce que j'apprécie énormément, c'est qu'il y a à l'intérieur des pages de couverture ainsi qu'au dos du livre les dessins colorés de toutes les plantes à colorier, c'est vraiment génial d'avoir les modèles à reproduire. Les dessins sont vraiment jolis, de belle qualité, les contours noirs sont nets.Si vous aimez cette thématique, n'hésitez pas, ce livre est très beau

Would have been good to know what images were included, there are only some that I wanted

La gamme Dover Publications a une gamme de livre très large dont plusieurs relatifs aux dessins de plantes. J'en possède trois dont celui ci.Le livre est de format A4 avec 44 dessins de fleurs (un dessin par page). Toutes les fleurs contenus à l'intérieur sont mises en avant coloriés sur 2 pages en reprenant le même format que ce que l'on voit sur la page de courveture ce qui permet d'aider fortement dans le remplissage des couleurs.Le livre est écrit en anglais. Ce qui est intéressant est que sous chaque fleurs est inscrit sont nom latin et en anglais ainsi qu'une brève description de cette dernière (taille, lieu géographique, floraison).L'impression est de bonne qualité, le papier aussi mais je ne conseille pas l'utilisation de feutres.

Beautiful book...easy to colour. Opens your world to the wisdom of the past. Love it.
