"COLOR US HOOKED- Monika Mira's 112-page The Complete Hawaiian Reef Fish Coloring Book is so much more. The diver and artist found it easier to identify sea life when she painted it; her results help kids and adults learn to spot more than 80 species of fish- many found in other regions- with in-depth descriptions as well as scientific, common and Hawaiian names." -Sport Diver Magazine

"I purchased this book for my son while on vacation in Hawaii and was so impressed! Not only does the author have incredible illustrations, the information is extremely valuable. This not only is a fun "coloring book", it is a great way for both kids, (and adults) to learn! I found myself enjoying this book as much as my son, I would recommend this book to everyone!"

"The Complete Hawaiian Reef Fish Coloring Book is a massive endeavor. Mira spent countless hours diving in and around the islands to get the information in this book. She is also a great illustrator. The illustrations are superb. In fact the illustrations are worthy of much more praise then can be given here. Reading the book and following the illustrations I can see distinctions between each fish shown. The extra illustrations of small sea life, shells and environments scattered throughout the book make it enjoyable. It is easy to color each of them and very rewarding for an adult who doesn’t have to stay in the lines but does because it looks better. This could be an effective aid in teaching upper elementary school children about Hawaii"...Read the full review here. Chris Phillips- BookPleasures.com
