Princesses & Faeries Adult Coloring Book by Tomoko Tashiro (お姫さまと妖精のぬり絵ブック by 田代知子)

So there's this adult colouring book craze that has come about as a result of our increasingly stressful society. It started out with Secret Garden by Johanna Basford, and then everyone else climbed onto the bandwagon.

I did not give this craze any attention, until I saw the Japanese version of the Princesses & Faeries Adult Coloring Book by Tomoko Tashiro. I bought it for one reason only - the short stories in Japanese at the end of the book that will help me in my Japanese language studies. However, one cannot deny that the pictures are beautifully nostalgic.

Snow White & The Seven Dwarves.

The princess & the Pea. Oh how I can relate!

The fairy tales in Japanese which made me decide to buy this book.
