The creators of the YouTube hit "Hipster Olympics" launch their print debut—a coloring book that explores the pleasures and woes of adulthood.
About Coloring for Grown-Ups:
For all of those grown-ups who miss their carefree days of being a kid, here is a coloring book that walks the fine line between childhood and adulthood. COLORING FOR GROWN-UPS (a Plume original, on sale November 2012) injects a bit of playfulness into our daily grind. It's as much fun for the kid inside each of us as the adult we've begrudgingly become.
Dreamed up by the creators of the massive Youtube hit, "Hipster Olympics," COLORING FOR GROWN-UPS is the ultimate F-you to growing up that can be enjoyed during woeful short lunch breaks, while procrastinating on a college paper or while waiting on the low-paying job interview. It's the type of book readers might leave on their coffee table for a hung-over house guest to flip through after a night of questionable decision-making.
The activities in the book resemble typical, coloring-book-style pages, but with a slightly twisted perspective that offers an ironic look at the stereotypes, habits, and challenges of modern adulthood.
COLORING FOR GROWN-UPS has dozens of fun adult activities, games, and puzzles including:
- "Hipster or Homeless?" coloring page
- Construct Your Online Dating Profile!
- A maze to help deflect pesky creditors
- Decoding secret messages of Real Estate (hint: "recently renovated" = recently swept)
- A doodling page reserved for drawing the person you thought you'd grow up to be before abandoning all your hopes and dreams!
…And many more amusements that combine the mindless joy of childhood coloring with the mindnumbing realities of real-world living!
Depressingly realistic and fun for any occasion — COLORING FOR GROWN-UPS is the perfect stocking stuffer and indispensable addition for adults of any age…sober or otherwise.
