Book 7 of 7 in Lantern Coloring
Morning Café
Bold and Easy Coloring Book for Adults and Teens
The cafe before the doors open: the espresso machine warming up, croissants cooling on the rack, the chalkboard out on the pavement and bicycles leaning by the window. Fifty two bold and easy designs of the counter, the bakery, the street outside and the animals that wait by the door, from a pour-over dripper to the corner cafe at sunrise.

Morning Café is a 110-page bold and easy coloring book for adults and teens, by Nora Ember. Not on sale yet.
The book opens with single things, a pour-over dripper, a milk pitcher, a hand coffee grinder, moves into fuller scenes, the corner cafe at sunrise, the coffee roaster, the room inside with its bistro chairs, and closes on simple shapes again, a takeaway cup, a sugar bowl, two mugs on hooks, so it starts with quick wins and ends on calm pages.
What is inside
- The counter, the barista's tools, the pastry case, the shopfront and the street with its bicycles
- A cafe as a place, not a table of drinks: two mugs in the whole book
- If you want the cake and the cupcakes, Sweet Treats
- 52 bold and easy designs, one to a right-hand page with the back left blank so a marker cannot bleed onto the next design, and a page to test your pens before you start.
The pictures are made with an image generation tool, then checked one by one by us. How a book gets made.

Questions before you buy
Who is it for?
Morning Café is drawn for adults and teens: lines thick enough to stay inside without effort and spaces big enough to fill in a sitting. The adult books have more detail than a small hand enjoys; for ages 3 to 6, Little Lantern Coloring is the same idea drawn bigger.
How many designs, and how big are the pages?
52 designs on 110 pages, 8.5 x 8.5 in, one design to a page, from the first (stovetop moka pot) to the last (cafe border). The book opens on single objects, moves into fuller scenes and ends on quiet pages.
