Seller's description

A CHRISTMAS PICTURE IS HIDING IN EVERY GRID. CAN YOU SHADE IT INTO VIEW?

Every square on the page holds a number from 1 to 6, and every number stands for one simple pencil mark: leave it white, draw a slash, a cross or a small crosshatch, shade it lightly, or fill it in solid. Work across the grid square by square and a shaded holiday picture slowly rises off the page, like a photograph developing. You won't know what it is until it's there.

WHAT YOU GET (instant download)
- One 43-page PDF, US Letter 8.5 x 11. Prints on A4 too: choose Fit to page.
- 32 original Christmas pictures, one per page: Santa, a reindeer, a snowman, stockings, a gingerbread house, a nutcracker, a cardinal in the snow, a steam train, a snowy chapel, a cabin in the pines and more.
- Four levels that build gently: Warm-Up (big 7.7 mm squares), Easy, Medium and Challenge (detailed 4.6 mm winter scenes).
- A how-to page and a small practice picture to learn the marks.
- The same six-mark key at the bottom of every puzzle, and heavy 5 x 5 guide lines so you never lose your place.
- Every picture revealed, with its name, at the back.

HOW TO USE IT
Print single-sided, so heavy shading or markers never show through. All you need is a pencil: an HB, a 2B or a mechanical pencil works well. Print one picture at a time, or the whole set for a quiet winter evening.

GOOD TO KNOW
- Relaxing and screen-free, for adults, retirees and older kids who like a calm, mindful activity.
- Every grid was checked by computer so the codes make the intended picture.
- This is the same book as our paperback edition, as a printable file.
