Default Colouring Books (hard to find nowadays)

So I was out doing a bit of xmas shopping this morning and decided to pick up some crayons and a colouring book for my nephew. I had a really hard time finding these. It seems that mostly markers are sold now but I did manage to find a 16 pack of crayolas. What ever happened to the 64 pack with the built in sharpener! A colouring book is even harder to find. Walmart only had about 2 of them. So I went to Toys R Us and got a Tonka one but they didn't have much more selection than Walmart. It's really sad you know. There was tons of selection for meaningless things like DVD's and games that go on the TV so they can sit there all day and stare at the television and not have to use their imaginations. It's no wonder so many of them are in the state they're in.

Check in the toy (not where the crayons are) section at Wal-mart, we always seem to be able to find coloring books for our son

The crayons were in the toy section. There were a few sticker books and about 2 different colouring books to choose from.
