First Coloring Book for Toddlers Ages 1-3 by Little Max

First Coloring Book for Toddlers Ages 1-3 by Little Max

A first coloring book made for small hands

  • 111 large drawings with thick, forgiving outlines
  • Little Max appears through the book, so coloring becomes a small story
  • One drawing per page, single-sided printing

111 big pictures, hand drawn with thick lines, no small detail, one drawing per page. It is easier for a toddler to color on their own, to steady the hand and hold attention, and the word under each picture becomes one of the first they ever read. And Little Max, the cheerful mouse, turns first coloring into a small adventure.

Three things worth seeing before you buy: how simple each shape is, how much of the page one drawing takes up, and the kind of subjects a toddler recognizes.

Questions parents ask

How is this different from the other First Coloring Book?

The drawing style and the difficulty are the same. This edition is built around the character Little Max and connects to the Little Max bedtime stories. Families who want both usually buy the lion-cover book first and this one second.

Is this a printed book or a download?

The book on this page is a printed paperback shipped by Amazon. Where a printable PDF edition also exists, you will see a separate download button below the buy button.

Will markers bleed through the page?

Each drawing sits on its own page, so a marker that bleeds only affects the back of that sheet. Slip a spare sheet of paper underneath if you use alcohol markers.

Not sure this is the right level for your child?

We run a separate reference site about first coloring books for ages 1 to 3. It explains the four stages of first drawing, what a page should look like at each one, and what is normal at the table at one, two and three years old. It has a free picker that names the stage your child is at now, ten pages you can print today, and it says plainly when a first coloring book is already too simple. This book is used there as a worked example, not as the answer to every case.
