Every City Tells a Story

60 Cities, 60 Stories – and You Bring the Color

Do you ever dream of the canals of Venice, the Colosseum at sunset, or the pyramids of Giza – but your next trip still feels far away?

Are you looking for a hobby that helps you unwind after a long day – and still lets you discover something new every time, instead of just filling in shapes?

And would you love a coloring book that is more than a stack of lines on paper?

Every City Tells a Story takes you to 60 of the most famous cities and landmarks on Earth. On every right-hand page, a design is waiting for you: a great building, a stretch of waterfront, a plaza or a garden in front of it, and a wide sky above, ready for your colors. The designs are clean line drawings that leave room for your own ideas – whether you like a few simple colors or soft shading and blends.

On the facing page, a short text tells you what makes that city special. So you don’t just color – you learn along the way why Venice stands on wooden piles driven deep into the mud, how many centuries it took to finish Cologne Cathedral, why the famous Blue Hall in Stockholm isn’t blue at all, and how the Statue of Liberty crossed the ocean in crates before it was assembled in New York Harbor.

Your journey leads you across every continent: to the Charles Bridge in Prague, the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, the Sphinx in front of the pyramids of Giza, Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, the Opera House in Sydney, and the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. Every fact has been carefully researched, and each text takes only a few minutes to read – just right for a short break between two pictures.

What’s inside:

• 60 landmarks from every continent – from the Sagrada Família and the Taj Mahal to the Statue of Liberty and the Golden Gate Bridge.
• A page of history for every city, plus a surprising “Did you know?” fact.
• Clear lines and wide open skies you can color any way you like – a sunset, a starry night, or a rainbow sky. There is no right or wrong.
• A table of contents so you can always find your favorite city fast.
• Large 8.5 x 11 inch format with 124 pages: the story on the left, the design on the right – everything lies comfortably in front of you.

Tip: The pictures turn out best with colored pencils. Because each design is backed by a text page, slip a sheet of paper behind it when you use markers.

Imagine this: it’s evening, and the house is quiet. You make a cup of tea, open the book to Kyoto, and give the pagoda its colors. Then you read what makes this city special – and in your mind you’re already traveling to the next one. Page by page, your own personal travel journal takes shape: a trip around the world in your colors that you’ll love to leaf through again and again. It also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves to travel or dreams of it – adults and seniors as well as curious kids ages 10 and up. The first page has room for a name: “This Coloring Book Belongs To …” Maybe you’ll color a city you once visited – or the one you want to see next.

Your journey begins on the first page. Grab your colored pencils and get your copy of Every City Tells a Story – 60 cities and their stories are waiting for you. Happy travels!
