One of my all time favorite coloring books. I loved all the different pages and it was very entertaining. Super Cute!

It’s the real one

Adorable and is amazing!!

I got this for a friend for her birthday. She’s a really big fan of Melanie Martinez and absolutely made her day.

I only have myself to blame as I did not read the reviews or pay attention to the parental advisory in the description, but I purchased this for my 12 year old who loves Melanie Martinez. She added it to her Easter wishlist and I just purchased it thinking it was a regular coloring book. She started to use it and showed me it had a “F*** you” page. Oops. I took the page out and then my husband and I had a good laugh afterwards. Great coloring book for teens and adults that love MM though. A parental advisory on the cover also would have been extremely helpful.

What I want parents to take away from this review is this: be aware of what your children listen to, what they seek out, the things that they relate to. It's worth a conversation.What I want Crybaby fans to take away from this is that this book is a very accurate representation of the album, featuring Pacify Her and Alphabet Boy and all the songs off the album. The pictures speak to the message, once you open it you immediately know what song it is and what lyrics stood out to make the page. Worth the buy if you're a fan, and definitely a great pair up with the album and its videos. I'd buy it again (and I might after I finish it.)Now, Crybaby is an alter ego of Melanie's who has suffered serious abuse as a child and never recovered. The theme is childhood, but this is not safe for kids. The album Crybaby is an exploration of that character's journey toward becoming more comfortable in her own skin and coming to terms with her past. One of the songs on the album is a clear allusion to kidnapping, another is about rape, and another is about family dysfunction. This coloring book represents all of that, paints it into pictures featuring Crybaby herself. There's a page where Crybaby is lying on the floor in front of a fridge that says "F You" in magnet letters (see Melanie's video Alphabet Boy) and another is of Crybaby screaming and struggling while a man in a mask carries her toward an ice cream truck (see Tag, You're It). A lot of Melanie's fans, excuse me a handful, have experienced child abuse themselves or maybe rape or kidnapping. I am one of those people. Crybaby has helped me feel less alone, and this book lets me express that pain.Let me be honest and critical. There have been seventeen reviews of this product as of my writing this, and a lot of them have said that this book is inappropriate, awful, disgusting etc. Do not buy this book if you do not know anything about Melanie Martinez or the Crybaby album, which this coloring book is based off of. Those customers who saw the cover of the book and immediately went "oh I'll buy this for my friend's kid" without knowing what Crybaby is made a -I'm sorry- an incredibly ignorant decision. If you are a parent, you need to listen to Melanie Martinez's Crybaby album (watch the music videos too) and THEN consider if this book is appropriate for your young kids. Simply buying a coloring book without knowing what's in it is dangerous, and that has been proven. Research the things you purchase for your children online, please, because this book and the album are not child-friendly and you'd know this beforehand if you were aware of the target audience of Melanie Martinez products.UPDATE: Added photos so you can catch a glimpse of what the actual pages depict.

Cute coloring book that showcases every music video or concept photo from Melanie Martinez’s crybaby album. Very nostalgic since I’ve listened to her since I was in middle school.
