"This is not just a coloring book, it's a wonderful way to explain a dark period in Berlin's history and what really happened from someone who was there. World War II ended in 1945, but not necessarily for those living in Berlin as the Communist Party kept its fists tightly clasped around East Berlin. Bibi LeBlanc takes us on a historic tour back in 1961, when a 12-foot wall was erected and guarded by sharpshooters in watchtowers and guard dogs patrolling the minefields called the "death strip." This is a story about what was lost and regained in 1989. This coloring book is exceptional and for all ages. I highly recommend it and I applaud Bibi LeBlanc!"
