Amazing South Carolina: A Coloring Book Journey Through Our 46 Counties is a delightful, one-of-a-kind book designed to engage youngsters and adult coloring book enthusiasts in learning about the unique character of our nation's eighth state. Every county in the state is represented in the book with an illustration of its iconic and lesser-known sites—historical, geographical, topographical, industrial, commercial, and more. A fun, comprehensive educational experience, Amazing South Carolina is a snapshot of all that is special about the Palmetto State. From the fast-growing foothills of the Upstate to the picturesque marshes of the Lowcountry and the lazy Edisto River meandering its way through the state; from big cities like Columbia and Greenville to the vibrant coastal communities of Charleston and Beaufort, South Carolina is as beautiful and historic as it is diverse. Amazing South Carolina highlights that diversity and celebrates some of Laura's favorite discoveries around the state.
This coloring book is filled with rich cultural history that dates back to the 1700s, with every county in the state represented. It’s a coloring book like no other!

—Terri L. Bell, author of Kingdom Kids Books

Amazing South Carolina is both entertaining and informative. It shines a light on places that make each county in our state special.

—Donna Borders, executive board member, Dillon County Historical Society

Amazing South Carolina is a delightful coloring book for South Carolinians young and old. Detailed in information, it offers an engaging way for all to learn about the state. This book is a great classroom tool and could be a staple of our state’s history curriculum. Certainly the book inspires visits to our most amazing historical and cultural sites.

—Lori Sowell, English instructor, Clover High School

A fun and creative way to learn about South Carolina and all the places and things that make it unique.

—Kimberly McClure, archivist, South Carolina Department of Archives and History

She has logged many miles in the making of her first coloring book, her sketchbook always with her. When not busy with her illustration work, Laura enjoys spending time with her husband, three children, and two pets at her home in Auburn, Alabama. See more of Laura’s work at lauramurraycreative.com.
