    I’d give them until Christmas and will probably return most magazine distributor issues so as to sell the higher margin product. The magazine supplied product may have it’s place next year one firm sale stock is sold down.

    Get the small format Christmas version. We did and it sold out within 3 days!

    I have found the 10 + year old girls are buying them now. Perhaps there is another market our there. They want to still colour in but don’t want to be babies. Perhaps they are a Christmas gift to be marketed.

    Interesting Carol. My 10yo daughter had a pupil free school day to day and we went to a book warehouse to choose books for the shop. I told her she could choose any book in the warehouse to have as her “pay” for helping me. She chose an adult colouring book.
