Really Big Coloring Books® says it has assembled one of the largest digital asset platforms in the coloring-book category, anchored by premium domains, proprietary content and a fully integrated publishing operation.

Why it matters: - Really Big Coloring Books® is trying to turn the coloring-book category into a broader digital publishing and licensing business. - The company says the platform combines domain ownership, original content, manufacturing and distribution in one place. - That mix could give the company more leverage with publishers, educators, retailers and licensing partners.
