One question, I had years ago when growing up, (now am as old as dirt)a small set of pictures of wild flowers that could be colored in the way you wanted them.  I am now looking for pictures of wild flowers that I and my granson can color according to the pictures we have taken.  So far all I have found on the net is ones that are dark and not able to be colored with pastels, map pencils, or crayons.  Does anyone know where we might find copies of such, or by a coloring book of them?  You would make both me and my grandson (6)very happy if you have any info!  Thanks so much, and will be posting on the forum soon,thanks for the wonderful site and information......

Happy coloring Murry Flowers will brighten your day whether mild or wild, Murry!    Report
