You are sure to be reminded of the creativity you had when you were a youngster, and it will also assist you in comprehending the emotions you have now as an adult.
I agree and it would be Intrigueing to know more about how that young creativity is connected to the adult's emotions. A good persuasion by the reviewer. Thank you.

Nancy L Vallette has created something truly special here. The way she blends childhood creativity with adult emotions is remarkable. The colorless illustrations are a brilliant touch, allowing readers to add their personal touch and engage more deeply with the content.
I believe in something greater than myself.

Creativity seems to abound during childhood, indeed, and it seems the fact that there less thinking then and too much analysis could be some of the factors associated with this. I am glad that the author's writing is able to transport readers to their childhood days and re-experience those wonderful moments and memories.
Thanks for the informative review. :tiphat: :tiphat: :tiphat:

Congratulations on the BOTD award. This is a wonderful book which helps us in getting our passion back even if we have some how forgotten our creativity with time and due to some unknown reasons.

“Field Guide to the Figments of Persuasion” by Nancy L. Vallette is a wonderfully colorless illustrated book about creativity like we had as children and help us better understand our emotions as adults. Reading this book will expand one’s imagination and remind readers of the fantasies they had as children. The colorless drawings and illustrations allow readers that have a paper copy of the book to use crayons to color pictures like they did when they were children. This is a book that every reader should enjoy as they link their fantasies and emotions as adults to their childhood days and help one expand their imaginations and re-wake their creative skills. I highly recommend this book.

Your review is fantastic, Christell! Sampling, I also liked the awesome illustrations, and I agree that black-and-white drawings stimulate imagination, and we can also colour them as we wish. I also agree that this fabulous fantasy comic story by amazingly creative authors is a great read for adults and children alike. It brings up childhood memories in adults, so much needed to relax and unwind. And it encourages children to be imaginative.

A book about psychological wellbeing which also helps on another level with its black & white drawings that are there to be colored and stimulate the imagination. It had such a great idea behind it that I downloaded it right away! Thanks for the review, I love that it reminds of one’s childhood, I can’t wait to read it!!

The review sounds good, the book sounds fine from what I've read in the review, but I think I'll pass on it. I'm looking for something like a thriller right now. Kudos to the author.

A creative colourless illustration book. One advantage of it being colourless is that it gives the readers, for those who own a personal copy of the book the chance to further employ their creative ability in picking colours for the illustrations.
