Hi, I'm Angela

Founder · Balancing Books LLC

I spent over 20 years in retail territory sales working with major national brands and large retailers, understanding what gets products off the shelves and into the hands of consumers. Then I decided to put that knowledge to work for something I actually wanted to build.

Paws Play & Color started as one idea and became 10 books. Every page is designed with intention. The right activity for the right age, characters with real personality, and books that don't feel like an afterthought. That's the point.

How we got here

The Idea

The Gang

10 Titles

The Site

One character. One coloring book. Let's see what happens.

A dedicated home for everything Paws Play & Color.

Buddy brought friends. Daisy, Max, and Pip joined the crew.

A catalog built one thoughtful book at a time.

What we actually believe

Kids aren't a demographic:

They're curious, opinionated, and deserve books made with the same care as anything for adults.

One person. Full accountability

There's no team to blame if something isn't right. Every book has my name on it. That keeps the bar high.

Simple isn't lazy

Clean layouts, clear activities, and pages kids can actually finish. That takes more work, not less.
