Adorable Babies: Adult Coloring Book - Paperback

Ms Ciarico grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. She is the second eldest of 7 siblings. She began drawing at an early age, and grew interested in writing as an adolescent. She enjoyed many hours of sketching and conceiving ideas for short stories and illustrated books. In 1997, Ms Ciarico fulfilled a burning desire to write and illustrate a children's picture book, and that's when Darcy the Daydreamer [her first book] was born. "The idea just sort of evolved from my own imagination and life experiences," commented Ms Ciarico. In 1998 Ann Ciarico got a job at a local newspaper as a graphic designer. Here, she honed her skills and experience needed to digitize her manuscript and transform it into a picture book. In 2002 the book was finally copyrighted and self-published. Darcy and the Bubble followed in 2012 as Darcy's second adventure, joining Darcy The Daydreamer on Kindle and Amazon. A Visit to Cloudy-Town is Ms Ciarico's third children's book, self-published in Feb. 2015, with a brand new storyline and characters. This is Ms Ciarico's fourth book and first adult coloring book. "I hope people all over the world will love this new, one-of-a-kind adult coloring book. There's no other coloring book out there with cute babies! And I also hope people will continue to embrace my children's books and love their characters and adventures. My big dream is to give a portion of the proceeds to charity to help disadvantaged kids live a better life. I want my books to become children's classics, timeless favorites among all children and adults." - Ann M. Ciarico
