In this picture

A striped kitten rests on a round mat beside a closed book. A large tasseled cushion rises behind its head. Small pom-poms ring the mat, and the book's page edges form thin parallel lines near the lower left. The kitten's long striped tail curves across the front of its body on the right.

Is this the page for you?

medium difficulty: Pom-poms, tassel threads and narrow book edges create close work around larger cushion and fur areas.
Skills to try: Maintaining a repeated border: Small round pom-poms follow the mat edge and need a consistent spacing of color.
Suggested age: About 7–10 years: The tiny trim and book spine invite a careful pencil user rather than broad crayon strokes. This is a suggestion; comfort with the shapes matters more than age.

Color the book cover first, keeping the thin page edges much lighter.
Repeat a cushion color in only a few pom-poms to connect the two soft furnishings.
