I'm guessing the images are enlarged versions of illustrations from some of the books, which once coloured in, could also be colour photocopied to make one of those showbooks out of .

Re: Famous Five Colouring Book
The colouring book was mentioned briefly on this thread:

It looks like a fun product and I'd have loved a Famous Five colouring book (or any Enid Blyton-themed colouring book) as a child.

Re: Famous Five Colouring Book
Moved from another topic.
My copy of the F.F colouring book has arrived. Nice to see the Soper illustrations and they're printed pencil illustrations too. Very pleased. I just have to set a bit of time aside now and try and paint them!

Has no one else ordered a copy of this book? Just wondered.
