MOSCOW, January 14 (Sputnik) – A Hillary Clinton coloring book, published in December, has been met with a rival version from a Republican organization, which offers the opportunity to color Hillary in a range of less-than-flattering situations.

"A Hillary Clinton coloring book was recently released. But we noticed there was a problem – some pages were missing," says a blog post published Monday by America Rising PAC, a right-wing political action group. "Not to worry! We fixed it, and made our own 'Missing Pages From the Clinton Coloring Book.'"

The PAC version features spreads including "Hillary Testifies about Benghazi," "Hillary Presses the Russia Reset Button," and "Hillary and Bill 'Struggle' to Pay for Mortgages on Two Mansions," and entreats readers to "join our coloring challenge, and tweet, Instagram, or email us your finished product!"

In December, Ulysses Press released a Hillary Clinton coloring book, which it called "An intimate, educational, and inspiring look at America’s best-known female politician … a fun and whimsical primer on the former First Lady and likely 2016 presidential candidate." The book, which costs $10, traces the stages of Clinton's life from her early years in Illinois, to her studies at Yale, marriage to Bill and later political campaigns, both with her husband and as a politician herself.

"Will Hillary dust off her impressive collection of executive pantsuits and make another run at the highest office in the country?" the book asks readers, inviting them to color in a series of "what if" scenarios concerning Hillary's possible future route to the presidency.

Clinton is not the first prospective 2016 presidential candidate to receive the coloring book treatment. In November, publisher Really Big Coloring Books released a supplement to its popular "Cruz to the Future" coloring book which was released in 2013, entitled "Ted Cruz Saves America." "This book was so wildly crazy popular," company founder Wayne Bell told USA TODAY. "Some parents consider this man a real superhero." The book, which costs $4.99, depicts the Republican senator riding an eagle, fighting a hydra and flying like Superman.
