What is in it

The tail is the book. Fanned displays fill thirty of the pages, each eye a small self-contained mandala of four or five rings. The remaining pages are perched birds where the tail trails rather than fans.

How it colours

Genuinely slow — a fanned page is several evenings. Pick it if repetition is what you want from colouring, and avoid it if you like finishing things.
