I bought this together with CITY SIGHTS, which is by the same illustrator. So most of the points made in my previous review also apply.
However, upon browsing all the pictures, I found that this book seems less detailed in that the coloring "spaces" (especially the small and tiny ones) look evenly distributed. Thus, it seems less daunting/intimidating.
I also noticed that the two books have different interpretations of the same color, e.g. light orange, sand, red, dark blue, ... This also means I have to create a new chart for this book specifically.
