Magical Worlds: An Enchanted Coloring Adventure

Super cute book with just enough detail and nice thick paper. VERY happy with this one!Update: I have since purchased 3 more of her books! I have fallen in love with these adorable illustrations and the joy of coloring such beautiful, unusual pictures! I think I own 5 now, including her Christmas book. I highly recommend these fun, interesting books! So off the chart from your usual mandalas, etc. I am about to buy one for my sister to get her addicted as well!!

The pages are thick and the pictures are beautiful. This brand never disappoints me. I love to use markers and the thick paper prevents bleeding.

Johanna Basford’s Magical Worlds is pure enchantment on paper! Every page is a beautifully detailed doorway into a dreamlike universe—castles in the clouds, secret gardens, underwater realms, and cozy fairy-tale villages. Her signature style shines through with intricate linework that’s both relaxing to color and bursting with creative possibilities.What I love most is how imaginative this book feels. It’s not just about filling in lines—it’s like taking a quiet adventure through hidden worlds. The paper quality is great too, holding up well to colored pencils, gel pens, and even light watercolor without bleeding.If you’re into coloring as a form of self-care, stress relief, or just love fantasy vibes, this book is an absolute must-have. It’s magical in every sense of the word!

Beautiful artistry! Nice pictures and lots of small, detailed spaces to color. Best for color pencil.

I bought this for a gift and then I bought one for myself. I don't do much coloring but I used to love it. It reminds me of my late mother who was very artistically talented. This is a beautiful book with outstanding designs of whimsy which could appeal to a large audience.

I was worried at first when I realized this book is double sided since I like to use watercolors. After testing even my darkest colors I can firmly say that watercolors don't bleed through to the other side. The illustrations are absolutely gorgeous and intricate which has made it so enjoyable to paint! Definitely will be getting more of this author!Photos show three water colored pages and the pages on the other side. No bleed through!

I love this artist’s books!I was a little sad that this book is bleeding through for my alcohol markers, as another book I have by her does not bleed.

I’m usually picky with what I like to color but I’ve actually finished a lot of pages in this book and will definitely be ordering more from Johanna!
