All our paperbacks are sold on Amazon, which prints and ships them. Use the buttons on each book for amazon.com or amazon.it; you can also find them on the other Amazon stores.
The Mippu books have an Italian edition. The other books are in English, but most pages need no reading at all.
Right after buying you download a PDF. Print it at home or at school as many times as you like, for personal or classroom use.
Each book shows its age range. Kids' books go from 2 to 8 years; Dreamy Reverse Coloring and the mandalas are for teens and adults.
Colored pencils and crayons work on every page. With markers, slip a sheet of paper behind the page you are coloring so the ink doesn't bleed through.
Long live imagination. Long live art. Long live scribbles.
Scribblenest began at a university desk.
Between exams, when the pressure got too loud, our founder reached for colored pencils. Twenty quiet minutes, one page, and everything felt lighter again.
We make books to share that feeling: with a tired parent after a long day, with a student before an exam, and with children who deserve afternoons full of imagination instead of another hour on a screen.
The friends who live in the Pastel Woods and pop up on our pages.
A round little bird who never goes anywhere without Lapo, his blue pencil.
A grumpy eraser in a thief's mask who keeps stealing the forest's colors.
A wise old owl who bakes the best cookies in the woods.
A gentle hedgehog who loves skating on the frozen lake.
A ladybug with a lantern, always the first to spot the stars.
A magpie with a nest full of shiny treasures.
Relaxing coloring videos, new pages and behind-the-scenes from the nest.
Coming in 2027: puzzle mysteries for grown-ups and gamebooks where you choose the path.
