The book lets fans of the longest running sci-fi series ever (according to the Guinness Book of World Records) color in the adventures of the time traveling Doctor and some of his greatest friends and enemies including Daleks, Cybermen, and even the Ood. Don’t blink as you color in the book’s deluxe end papers featuring the Weeping Angels. The _Doctor Who_ coloring books are just the latest (and possibly coolest) entry in a boom in coloring books aimed at adults. Coloring [reportedly](http://time.com/money/3941973/adult-coloring-books/) helps busy minds switch off for a few minutes and focus only on filling in a sonic screwdriver or the finding the right shade of TARDIS blue, which can help alleviate free-floating anxiety.  Penguin Young Readers Penguin Young Readers already has two follow-ups in the works with _Doctor Who Travels In Time Coloring Book_hitting stores on July 26, 2016 and the _Doctor Who Dot-To-Doc_ activity book coming out in October, letting fans _c_onnect the dots across space and time. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4234288/doctor-who-coloring-book/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4234288/doctor-who-coloring-book/"},"headline":"Check Out The New Doctor Who Coloring Book","datePublished":"2016-02-23T19:42:46.000Z","dateModified":"2026-05-11T04:46:41.919Z","description":"Plus, exciting news about a new edition to the Who-niverse","url":"https://time.com/4234288/doctor-who-coloring-book/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","doctor who","Pop Culture"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt48e7bac0d69e2b1d/69887ec72dce0106629e7ed9/9780399542299.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt48e7bac0d69e2b1d/69887ec72dce0106629e7ed9/9780399542299.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"9780399542299","caption":"","creditText":"Penguin Young Readers","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4234288/doctor-who-coloring-book/","name":"Check Out The New Doctor Who Coloring Book"}}]}] ```
