If you would like to purchase the printed version of the coloring book it’s still available on Amazon.com, but many of the links inside will be broken by now. You can still find information about the animals just by doing a Google search.

Jonni, thank you for the coloring book. FYI- I found it on Amazon. I ordered it.
I will gift it to my grandson, Johnny. He will love it!
I wonder if you could see a gallery of your work where also the students and people you have inspired.Who found you on the internet and because of you they had to try..I would not have thought to try this if it were not for what I saw that what you have done. More books Please be your own spot where they belong.
Hi Karlyn. We do have a page where people can show us their work, and we have hundreds of photos in that section. You can find it at the Daily Sculptors page. I hope you’ll show off some of your work on that page, too. 🙂
Oops – of course you already found that page – I’m afraid I didn’t recognize your name when I posted my reply. That’s OK, though – the next person who visits this post might not know about the Daily Sculptors page. 🙂
lovely art – my granddaughter who loves animals as much as I do will love these so very much. thank you for such a lovely gift!
You’re welcome!
Thank you very much for this gift. May I also congratulate you on all the beautiful things you make. I intend to order some of your books for under the Christmas tree. Hope I will get them in time (I live in Belgium 🙂 )
Hi Veronique. I hope you enjoy the coloring book. And I just checked – at least one of my books is available on Amazon.fr, so shipping shouldn’t take terribly long. Have a very happy holiday season!
Hi Jonni,
I just wanted to say thank you for your very generous gift of the free downloadable Endangered Animals Colouring Book. What an awesome way for kids to learn about protecting animals and have fun colouring them! I manage a FB page called the Society of Travelers Respecting Animal Welfare (website address above). I share information about animal tourist attractions that are true sanctuaries and meet their animals’ physical, emotional and psychological needs. I also let people know about animal tourist attractions the readers should avoid due to the abuse they inflict on their animals. I shared your post today (with a thank you to you) and I think it will be a very popular download. Thank you for what you do for animals and if you like my page, please click the “Like” button. We are nearly at 500 members!
Thanks again,
Leanne
Hi Leanne. I’m glad you’ve found a good use for the coloring book – and thanks for the link. Links are always welcome. Keep up the good work!

Bonjour Jonni
Je vous remercie pour le livre en pdf , c’est très gentil a vous .
Je crois en fait que c’est le départ qui est difficile, doit -on utiliser du fil de fer, ou autre matériel plus rigide pour le “squelette” ? ( J’aimerais faire un Bouddha )
Merci encore et longue vie a votre site

Bonjour. The size of reinforcing you need depends on the size of your sculpture. You can use aluminum wire, like I did for the little dogs, or you can use heavy wire for larger sculptures, or use a cardboard pattern inside, like I do for my larger animals. You just need something inside that will be strong enough to hold up the weight of the wet paper mache.
Well Jonni- you are very generous but I have to tell you, when my granddaughter is old enough to like coloring, I plan on purchasing your book, not downloading. It is my little way of giving back for all the knowledge and wisdom you so willingly share with us. I am looking forward to your new book as well. You have not mentioned the show you were planning with your daughter for a while, is that still on?
Hi Eileen. Jessie will have a one-person show at the local art center in a few months. I tried really hard to come up with something that I thought would work in a gallery, but for some reason my mind just doesn’t go in that direction. I keep coming up with ideas for books, but the gallery thing just eludes me. I am going to play around with some small faces next week, because I was sent a free sample of Flumo, an air-dry casting slip, and I’m really anxious to try it. I can see myself doing 100 tiny faces in clay (almost as a meditative process) but I’m not sure how they would look in a gallery. I see them more as something to add to a mixed-media painting or something of that sort.
I read a book a long time ago (can’t remember which one) that said an artist has to know where a finished item will go before actually starting to make it. Many art students stop making art as soon as they graduate, he said, because they no longer see their work, in their minds, hanging on the school’s gallery walls. I think that’s totally true for me – I can imagine my little dogs appearing in a book, for instance, so it’s fun to make them. I tried to imagine my work in a gallery, and I haven’t been able to make that work. Maybe I’ll think about it again, when I get my little faces done next week.
By the way, Jessie’s latest landscape painting is huge, and amazing. I’ll ask her if I can show it to you all.
I have a jar of Flumo, I have not used it yet, so I am curious as to how you use it and what you will think of it. I have not been able to use it yet, but I am just finding time I may be able to spend on my projects in mind for it.
Thanks for sharing the coloring book and all you do!
Well, though your fans may disagree with you on your stuff not fitting into a gallery scenario, you have to be true to yourself. If you just aren’t comfortable, don’t do it. That being said, just about anything can go into a gallery these days. I was just at one and one of my favorite pieces in there was made of a gourd that had paper clay added to it. It was beautifully painted. One would have thought in the past that something like that would be considered a “craft” but here it was in a fine art gallery.
You do fine faces, both animals and humans. I would love to see your little faces when you are done. That’s an interesting idea about a mixed media painting but there would be nothing wrong with simply displaying the faces within a nice shadow box frame either.
Best of luck to Jesse with her show. She does fabulous work and I love her style. We would love to see her latest-is it on her website?
Thanks for your comments, Eileen. I actually do have something in mind for the little faces, but I don’t know if it’s something that will ever happen. I wrote up a list of “chapters” for a new book called Fast Faces – the text file has been sitting on my desktop for over a year. I have no idea if I’ll ever do it, but it would be fun.
Jessie hasn’t put the newest painting on her blog yet. She’s been spending a huge amount of time since Christmas on an unexpected project, caused by a broken pipe. Maybe someday she’ll share that with us, too. She’s just now getting time to paint again, and needs to hurry up to have enough work for her show. Wish her luck! (I’m going over to her house this morning, and maybe I can talk her into letting me take a picture of the painting. It’s amazing.
Thanks Jonni,
I look forward to your Newsletters. Thanks for the download. Also shared on Facebook.

Wow! Thank you so much, Jonni. This will be so interesting and fun to keep any little Australian ‘mini’ visitors entertained whilst in my home and I am also going to pass it on to a lovely Japanese family living in Kuala Lumpur – they all love animals and are very interested in history/geography of any kind. I know they will love it….thank you!
You’re welcome. 😉
I’ve just shared your post on Facebook! I know a bunch of kids are going to love this, Jonni, and I hope it drives some sales for your other wonderful books, too. 😀
Thanks, Xan.
Thank you Jonni, I have forwarded it to my two nieces who are teachers. I am certain they will find it useful.
Regards
Beth
WOW the coloring book is awesome !!! My kids are going to LOVE it. Thanks so much !!
You’re welcome. I’m glad you like it. Makes it all worthwhile. 🙂
I wish you lived next door! So would enjoy having someone not afraid of a good mess, and who seems to know how to listen to her pieces.
Your web presence is inspiring me to remember the satisfaction of mini-creation.
You have also inspired me to take a second look at old unfinished sewn dolls. I think your new clay could let me sculpt thin smiling faces to glue on!
Thank you, Jonni!
Sue
Hi Sue. It would be fun to have a whole neighborhood full of people messing around with messy art projects, wouldn’t it? We can always dream.
The doll idea you had is interesting – let us know how it works out.
Jonni,
How very kind of you to do this for the kids. Both fun and educational.
