In this delightful coloring page, we see a giant strawberry and giant cherry fighting over a little boy named Cipollino. The strawberry is a cruel prince who is engaged to the princess, and the cherry is the king's son. The prince has often mistreated the princess and Cipollino has decided to take it upon himself to save her from her plight. He has found allies in the Lightning Bug, the Grasshopper, and the Bumblebee, who have helped him to overthrow the prince and free the princess. The happy couple will live happily ever after.
When you're ready to color this page, consider a bright and cheerful palette of colors to bring these characters to life. For the soaring cherry, paint it a luminous shade of red with a touch of yellow and a glossy shine. The strawberry prince can be a dark purple with bright green leaves to give him a sinister edge. Flesh out Cipollino with an earthy brown and paint his friends the Lighting Bug, Grasshopper, and Bumblebee with playful schemes of blues, greens, and yellows. Finally, finish the page with a peaceful backdrop of bleached pastels that will put the rescue mission in the perfect perspective.
