Abstract: An amusement and instructional coloring book for the blind wherein the images are recessed into pages of the book to form a tactual image outline for defining the area to be colored. Raised border lines may also be provided to demarcate various portions of the image. A legend written in braille and typescript is also provided for defining the colors of the respective portions of the images. The coloring means also have corresponding visual and tactile indices thereon. Other features include means for the blind to appreciate the actual life-size of the images, variable extents of recessions of the image portions for imparting depth perception to the blind, special textures of the images to impart tactual qualities of the real-life images, and the provision of special paper adaptable to be colored completely by feel.
