We have a 12 page Color - Read - History local historical coloring book
that I created for The Waterloo Area Historical Society to sell in the
Museum. I changed the cover to a "color" type cover and it helped sell the
b/w coloring book. Covers are important!!!
I give a complimentary one to the Schools so the fourth graders know a
little about what they are going to see at the Museum.
As we are a small community, sales are limited...but still worth the effort
to create something for young minds to explore...
