In Frida Meets New Friends Everywhere, Frida’s new dad turns original photographs into coloring pages for you to create your own iconic Mexican scenes. Trust us, your creation cannot be any crazier than the real thing here.
With Amazon, you receive a Kindle Direct Publishing high quality coloring book that you can touch, smell, maybe accidently draw blood with.
With the E-Book, you receive an e-book of ready to print .pdf files. Additionally, you will recieve extra full(er) sized coloring page images of all of the included vochos.
No matter which path you take, you gain access to companion web pages which include more information about the images, places and vochos. Additionally, you can enter naming contests for Frida’s friends to win future coloring books in the Frida series. You will also see the original images, and can submit your colored pages to show off your work!
Frida’s friend should be named:________________
Frida’s dad is the one that has opposable thumbs, so he is the one that is responsible for this. Frida’s adopted parents live in Oaxaca de Juarez, Mexico, with Frida, her brothers Zach, Josh and El Tigre Macho de Noche.
Frida’s dad is also responsible for the original images, grammatical errors, including double spacing after periods, and ensuring Frida is well fed with High Octane vocho juice.
Frida’s dad does have a name, it is Trä Hitt. Trä is a photographer, writer, and all around nerd.
Frida’s dad with another vocho found at an obscure restaurant in Huatulco, Mexico. Frida knows about this and is ok with it…
Had I known I could grab colored pencils and create my own iconic scenes of Mexican life with a classic beetle, I may not have picked up that crazy UFO conspiracy habit along the way. Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy today, because there are only so many foil hats to go around.
Excerpt from the coloring book
From the companion Website
That’s it, Frida’s dad is out of words for the day. That is actually Frida over there, at the Benito Juarez National Park, glamming for the camera as the sun gets ready to set over the Etla Valley to the west.
So, do Frida a favor and pitch in to the High-Octane vocho juice fund by grabbing your coloring book today.
Oh, a blog too!
