Great book for a flight!! . My 3 year old daughter saw this at the airport Borders store. At first I was reluctant because it is a thick book and I didn't know if I could fit it in among all the other diversion toys/books I had in my bag for her already! However, she fell in love with it and I caved.
I'M SO GLAD I DID! After a 4 hour flight, she did not want to get back on another plane - that's when we saw this book. This book kept her occupied for the entire 2nd flight. I didn't have to get out anything from my bag to entertain her (even new toys I had stashed for just the occasion - she showed zero interest in them compared to this book!)
The crayons are cool - they're triangle stackable crayons that fit in a small hand perfectly. The stackable feature is what kept my daughter so well occupied! She stacked them and re-stacked them, pretended it was a rocket when all put together, then would crash the rocket and put it back together again. Since they are triangle shaped, they don't roll every which way. The crayons have to be facing a certain way when placed in the plastic holder for them so that was a bit annoying for me, and upsetting for my 3 year old (it does say ages 4 and up), but it's still awesome that the crayons can stay with the book. The crayons in stacked form measure 5 1/2 inches long by 1 1/2 inches high.
The back and front are VERY thick and sturdy cardboard. There are 75 pages total - this one is girl specific and you can either just color the 50 coloring book pages, listen to the directions on them - draw hair on the characters, draw jewelry on them, finish the other half of the princess castle, etc. There are 25 pages of blank paper at the end as well.
The book is held together by a very sturdy spiral - I know it's sturdy because my daughter has wrecked spirals before and she played with this and didn't do any damage.
I can see kids up through at least 6 years old really enjoying this. If you have an artsy kid who is older or picky, they may not like the triangle crayons, though they might be cool for a short time, and they may prefer regular crayons instead, but would still enjoy the book.

Wrong gender . I ordered both the boy and girl versions of this coloring book. We received two 'boy' blue versions, not the pink 'girl' book pictured here.. The second boy book was a different edition, longer in length with the crayon part sticking out of the book, not part of the cover which would protect it. the crayon container was actually torn and had been taped together using clear tape. tacky, amazon. obviously the second book is useless..my children could tell the difference and figured out which one was damaged. the clear tape removed part of the cover art so it isn't even useable as a gift.
