There is nothing more important than protecting our planet and the animals we share it with. I'm so happy Kerby has chosen to inform and support that cause with a beautiful colouring book. It really is a win-win.

Hi Claire. I 'm a Brazilian biologist and this is the first Kerby book that I buy (I 'm waiting for delivery), because it touched me deeply. Many things went on in my head as you flipped through these images. And it is exactly what you said, it is not about Kerby, but about the animals that we are destroying every day. I'm sorry for my English. I love your videos.

What a wonderful review Claire... I love the depth you went into, the care you have towards the animals and the book itself, I really love. I'm not a "doodle" lover but do love how Kirby blends the habitat into the animals many times. Very cleverly done in many instances. As for the pictures that were more about the animal only, it was a nice change. Have a lovely evening, Easter

Brilliant review I'm still waiting for mine to come , I'm so glad it tells you what animals they are so you can look it up for a reference picture

Stunning, heartbreaking book. Reminds me why I have such little love for our own species. Thanks for the review, Claire ❤

Thank you Claire, I have been waiting for your thoughts and review of Kerbys new book. This is such an important book Kerby has created. Kerby have given each of these beautiful and endangered species a Voice! Truly is created to make think blessed be. Open people's eyes to what is happening in the here and now to the world's wildlife God Bless 😪💜. As you say Kerby is making us Aware as of the critical damage us humans have done to this beautiful planet and the wildlife living on our beautiful planet. Thank you Kerby for your everstunning drawing allowing use to bring each animal to life and giving them a Voice with the important information. I have ordered this and should arrive very soon. Claire, can you let us know when the US version is out and will you be doing a review on the US version? Thank you again Claire & Kerby Rosanes. I am looking forward to colour & paint XX Stay safe, Take care as always dear Claire from Us3 here Lizzie, Josh & Pixie Bella XXX ☮️💜🎨🖌️🖊️🖋️☕☕🤗🤗😊

Oh my Claire, I dont think I have ever had my throat constrict and have to sit not blinking while watching a colouring book review, so ummm thanks 😂 Taz the cat hit my face wondering what was wrong. Absolutely amazing review x

I love the direction Kerby is taking with less doodles and more natural images! Love this book and can't wait till it is released in March!

I have all his 'morphia' books and Worlds within Worlds. I can't wait to have this one too! Looks amazing as always 😊

Thank you Claire for another wonderful review. I had already ordered the book, but, this sealed the deal! I love the "wrong again" guesses! I tried to play along with you and I was surprised several times too. I can't wait to see what you colour! Canada has the US version so the paper in my first "Kerby" book is cream, but, the up side is that the spine can be cracked and there is 1 - 2 mm space on each side so you don't have to dig into the groove to colour. Cheers!

I really appreciate your detailed and honest reviews. It makes it so much easier to decide if I would personally like something or not.

I can’t wait to get my copy next month, this book looks breathtaking! No doodles!😮👍🏼 Happy coloring! 🥰

Thank you for this. I have been waiting for someone to go into more depth with the descriptions of the animals.

Thank you claire I love listening to you review books. Mine came yesterday can’t wait to get colouring.love the picture you did.

Thanks so much for the in-depth flip through. I second you 100% with everything you said. I support animal protection whereever I can. I will be receiving this book next week. The artwork is fantastic, love it there are no doodles. The page you colored is amazing. So glad also Kerby is donating part of the royalties.

Great review!! Love the whole book!! Makes you really think about what we're doing to this beautiful world.

when I saw your first flip through, I said I have to get this book even if I don't colour everything because the illustrations are so good! Thanks for a good review as always.

Fantastic review Claire pre ordered mine excited to receive this book l really like this different style of Kerbys illustrations ❤️👍

Love this review I the ordered mine and shall be here tomorrow 😊 I'm home schooling my kids (2 in high school 1 in last year at primary 4 year old twins and 2 year old) I think this will be great to educate them about endangered animals, and my younger ones in years to come! I feel a project coming on! Lovely book, thank you Claire x

Beautiful review... lengthy but it needed that much time or perhaps more to explain the thought behind it... thank you Claire for such a thoughtful review.. definitely gonna buy!!!

Thank you for a great review and for your earlier flip through! I immediately went over and ordered a copy after seeing it. For me personally, this is my absolute favorite of Kerby’s books because it is simpler and has a lot of more realistic drawings without all the fiddley bits. I love that he donating a percentage of the sales to a great cause too. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for a wonderful review. I live in the States, but ordered my copy from the Book Depository to get the stitch bound copy. I love how he is using this book to bring so much light to endangered animals and habitats. I will not mind not having the doodles.

It is soooooo handy that he told us what kind of animal it is....this helps to look for reference foto's for the right colors. Can you tell me how the paper is....can we use a little wet mediums in it?

Thanks Claire, I love your reviews! And oh my god the Red Panda page!!! I love it!

Interesting that the version printed in America doesn't have the "A royalty from the sale of this book will be donated to..." line. That was part of the reason I bought this book (I'm quite sure I'll never colour much of it). It is a beautiful book. I'll have to find a way to make my own donation.

I saw your flip through and re ordered book. You are correct it is different and I like it. I won’t miss the doodles. Excellent review.

I have this in my Amazon wish list. It's a beautiful book, whether you color it or leave it as a book of sketches. Totally worth it. I prefer the UK binding, but I am from the States. Thank you for showcasing this.

Great review Claire. I love listening to you 'ramble' because you are an interesting person! Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

And yeah...I have it on pre-order now. I think the artwork in this book is just beautiful; some of his best work.

Which pencils did you find worked best Claire? I received mine yesterday, but the paper although on the thicker quality, seems quite smooth with little tooth.

Super review as always Caire, I promised myself no more books but for this I will make an exception. I am not keen on the doodles in previous books but this seems different as the backgounds are related to the main subject. As a keen conservationist I hope that this book will raise awareness of what we are doing to our wonderful planet and make us all think twice about the choices we make.

Absolutely loved this in depth review of this book. I can’t wait to get it as I love this newer style of his.

This is my favorite book of Kerby's and the main reason I started the New Year 2023 with goals to master animals, especially fur, so I can do this book justice. I have TWO copies, one to play and practice and one to get series and do as realistic as I can. I am covering ever page in that one with gesso so I can put down pastel and poly chromos. I hope to have the book done this year. Wish me luck :)

Such a lovely book...but how do you put colour into all that dark shading?

Really great review Claire, thank you xx

Magnifique livre que j’ai également commandé et que j’attends de recevoir. Ce livre est différent des livres de Kerby Rosanes et je trouve qu’il est vraiment superbe 🤩 De plus c’est un livre qui sensibilise sur notre nature et les animaux en danger sur la planète et je trouve que cela est vraiment bien. Merci Claire pour cette très belle présentation 😘🙏🥰

I have purchased none Kerby Rosanes books but I love the pictures in them but they are too busy for me.. Thanks for sharing

The rhino story is How the Rhinoceros got his skin from Rudyard Kiplings Just So Stories which are just brilliant. Also love your reviews

nice book! thanks for sharing! enjoy coloring it!

Hi Claire, Thanks for a great review ... I’m new to coloring and I am considering this book and so looked for a flip through. As you were telling us about the animals and how they are endangered all I kept thinking is.... how many trees will be chopped down to produce these books for people to color endangered animals?!

Thank you Claire for a Fantastic and informative video, I just received the book yesterday and I personally think it is best one so far, and that he is helping a good cause too making people more aware and knowledge of protecting our animals... love your Orangutan he is stunning x

Wonderful video. Have it on preorder. Thank you

What a wonderful book! I am more of a plants person. Would love to see something similar for plants.

As always lovely review love the pictures however wouldn't get it due too much shading on the pictures and I wouldn't know how to colour.

Hi Claire, can you please let me know the paper quality of this book? Is it thick like his morphia books?

Im so happy mine arrived today :D

Thank you Claire for this coloring book review. This is a coloring book that is an educator to the public. I just love this book. Love Terri Simmers

I think it is my favourite. I didn't like the doodles. Because of this, I have Worlds within Worlds only

Wow lovely book. Fantastic. Thanks for sharing

Great review !

Very good and informative review! 👍

Lovely book!!! I love his doodles, and I miss them, but the images are stunning! And yes raising awareness is very important! Is that the LOM edition? I would really love to get the stitched bound one!

Love the review, thanks

I love this book of kurby it's my favorite book. Ty for sharing. 😊

Wonder if having it spiral bound would be ok

I can’t wait to get this book! And New Zealand represent! 🇳🇿

This might be my favourite one!

Bit late but just to inform you, I am a proud owner of an axolotl, its name is guacamole ( because there a Mexican food haha) and people caring for them and breeding them is the one thing keeping alive the species. Human interference was a factor in there endangerment but we managed to partially save them. Loved the video and this book.

I’m getting mine today as we speak

I don’t think I would ever miss the doodles. I respect his art, but I think the do a disservice to his illustrations. This is more something I would enjoy more 😍. I miss your videos and I hope you are OK!

At first I thought the multiple pages with mountains and animals on their back was lazy illustration but then I realized he may be stressing how important these animals are with the fact that they carry the weight of the ecosystems survival on their backs.

I love this book

Impossibilité de visionner avec une traduction... très dommage !!!! j'aurai voulu comprendre votre ressenti ;) Merci

I stop watching any video where I have to look at someone’s hands for the first two minutes.

Wow...did ya have to read about EVERY animal?? Less is more...
