Experience the Color Monster from the internationally beloved and bestselling series in a whole new way! Dive into this inviting coloring book that inspires kids to explore emotions with a highly accessible approach. BONUS sticker sheet included!

How is the Color Monster feeling today? Match emotion to color and choose how you think he would feel in a variety of places, situations, and activities.

This appealing coloring book isn’t just fun to look at, read, or play with; it also has therapeutic value. The text asks children to add colors that represent how Color Monster might feel in a wide array of unusual, funny, awkward, frustrating, embarrassing, and also wonderful situations. The prompts are excellent conversation starters as a tool for developing emotional intelligence. But it’s also delightful simply as an invitation to explore color on the page.

Anna Llenas’s childlike, loose black linework invites young kids right in and makes them feel at home. It’s clearly a place where coloring outside of the lines—and thinking outside of the box—is welcome. A sticker sheet at the end allows you to bring the Color Monster with you wherever you go!
