Disney-Hyperion sent me a copy to check out, and is partnering with me for a giveaway!
The Percy Jackson Coloring Book
By Rick Riordan with artwork by Keith Robinson
Published by Disney-Hyperion
In Stores August 15th, 2017
Over the past decade, millions of young readers, parents, and teachers have come to adore Rick Riordan’s classic series Percy Jackson and the Olympians, which made ancient Greek mythology contemporary, relevant, and entertaining as it turned kids on to reading. Now fans can literally color Percy’s world with the amusing portraits, dramatic scenes, and intricate designs on every spread of this large format paperback. This book is a great way to introduce young children to the series, to allow older fans to reminisce, and to augment classroom units on Greek mythology.
About the Author
Rick Riordan, dubbed “storyteller of the gods” by Publishers Weekly, is the author of five #1 New York Times best-selling middle grade series with millions of copies sold throughout the world: Percy Jackson and the Olympians, the Heroes of Olympus, and the Trials of Apollo, based on Greek and Roman mythology; the Kane Chronicles, based on Ancient Egyptian mythology; and Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, based on Norse mythology. Rick collaborated with illustrator John Rocco on two best-selling collections of Greek myths for the whole family: Percy Jackson’s Greek Gods and Percy Jackson’s Greek Heroes. Rick lives in Boston, Massachusetts with his wife and two sons. Follow him on Twitter at @camphalfblood.
About the Illustrator
Keith Robinson graduated with a degree in graphic design and illustration in 1992 and worked as an animator on some of the earliest digital media productions for clients around the world. He joined the BBC and was part of the R&D team that developed the corporation’s first website. He later founded Codename, an award-winning media production company, before he became a freelance illustrator in 2001. His illustrations have been featured in children’s books, magazines, television programs, and on postage stamps. He especially enjoys drawing fantasy, mythical, and historical subjects. He lives on the south coast of England.
I personally have read the books and so far my family has seen the movies, all of us love Percy Jackson. I am excited that my boys are at an age now where they can sit and devour the Percy Jackson series on their own. I remember escaping into the Camp Half Blood world and the lives of the characters. This coloring book is an awesome collection of illustrations of various levels of artwork. There are pages with less detail that are easier to color and ones with lots of detail. My kids and I have been coloring pages for days now and it has made its way into our busy bag for when we are stuck waiting at sports practices.
I really like how this book is both easy and challenging. Some days I want something easy and quick to color and unwind to. Some days I want to be challenged and have a lot of stress to work out. It is amazing how well coloring can de-stress a person! This book is perfect for both boys and girls who love the Percy Jackson series as well as those that are new to the series.
