Product Description

This non-traditional coloring book takes children on a tour of Thailand led by friendly 'jing joks' (little Thai lizards), each page designed to entertain, educate and inspire. Don't expect children to stay quiet if they are old enough to read Nancy's fun comments. And don't expect the usual results at the end of each activity. Nancy designed this book with the hope of inspiring young artists to think 'outside the lines'. All pictures are preceded by descriptions in Thai, English and Japanese, and creative suggestions from the artist (such as adding sunburned family and friends to a beach scene or coloring elephants anything but grey). For proud parents, pages are perforated and laid out to allow pictures to be individually removed and posted or framed.

About the Author
American artist Nancy Chandler has been creating unique maps, cards and gifts celebrating life in Thailand since the early 1970s. A native of San Francisco, her unique style has been influenced by her parents, her early years in the design business in the US, and a year she spent in Nepal before moving to Thailand in 1969. In Thailand, her work took many forms, from t-shirt and logo design to the maps and cards she is recognized for today. She now spends much of each year in the US with her youngest daughter, Kim, a high functioning Down Syndrome young lady (and an artist as well). Nancy does however return to Thailand annually on research trips and to visit friends and family, including her two other daughters, Nima (now her business partner) and Siri (a kindergarten teacher at the International School of Bangkok).
