Our Special Sunday

Born on the same day, author/artist Hinano and her friend have created a special way to commemorate their connection, not on their birthday but on their half-birthday. Each year, they alternate celebrating one another, and this year it is Hinano’s turn to prepare the festivities for her friend. Our Special Sunday is a delightful half-hour-by-half-hour recounting of the day, from 7 a.m., when Hinano rises, to when she makes her final diary entry at 11:30 p.m. In between, she visits a flower shop, selects a gift for her friend, bakes a berry pie, and much more. Every step in her preparations is illustrated with a black-and-white design to colour paired with a version fully coloured in by Hinano, for inspiration. Special features:Author/artist created—no AI or stock images: All of the art was hand-drawn by Hinano in her signature retro pop style, especially for this book. A unique colouring book: Hinano tells a sweet story about a special day in words and art, the half-birthday she shares with a friend and how she prepares for it, attending to every detail. Colouring inspiration: 5 step-by-steps are included, as well as fully coloured versions by the artist of all the black-and-white colouring designs. Quality colouring experience: Printed on premium paper with a sewn binding that lets the pages open flat. A thoughtful gift: A beautiful package with artwork on every page, printed in 4C throughout, it’s a lovely celebration of friendship. Hinano also includes four colouring step-by-steps, showing how to apply a base colour, how to layer colours, and how to create transparency and gradations in colour. Finally, she takes you through colouring one of her designs from start to finish. Our Special Sunday is a beautiful expression of mindfulness and friendship that will have you colouring yourself contented and calm.
