Review

"Wuthering Heights is one of the classics which has stood the test of time. I liked the mixture of large and small designs: there are plenty of designs which absorb hours and days, but plenty of smaller pieces which are happily completed in minutes rather than hours but which still give a sense of satisfaction. The paper used in the book is of high quality and colours don't bleed through from the reverse." (- The Book Bag)

"The book is stunning ... a joy to colour." (- Creative Colouring with Hazel)

Review

"Brit Lit is one of my favorite classes to teach. I mean, who can resist heroes like Beowulf, King Arthur and Robin Hood, not to mention folklore rich with fairies and ghosts? Throw in famous characters like Frankenstein, Dracula, Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde, and Sherlock Holmes and introduce the adventures of Lemuel Gulliver and Jim Hawkins and you've got yourself a class most teens can really sink their teeth into."
