WHich colored pancils should I get to use with an adult coloring book?

You can use any colored pencils. I think the Prismacolor Premium or Crayola pencils work better. Crayola pencils work great for coloring books and are harder and cheaper than Prismacolor Premium pencils.

I want to buy some pencils for my 11yr old granddaughter to use with the Secret Garden coloring book, should I get the premier or verathin?

Both would be great choices. The Pemier is made of thick cores of color last long to bring bold statements to life, while soft leads make them the best tool to blend in or shade away. They're vivid and intense in one stroke and subtle and soft in the next, making them perfect for any project, big or small. Smooth coverage and a wide array of colors to choose from make it easy to find a soft spot for these premium pencils.The Verithin are for those from the burgeoning artist to the seasoned pro, these hard, thin leads make an impact on the more intricate details of your vision. These high quality pencils make edges cleaner, outlines bolder and lettering pristine with extremely fine points that define a unique point of view. The Verithin comes in 12, 24 and 36 count where as the Premier comes in 12,24,36, 48, 60,72, 96, 132 and 150.

What is the best way to sharpen these? I am having trouble with the lead breaking off while sharpening.

Hold the colored pencil in one hand and the pencil sharpener in the other hand, and then turn the pencil sharpener, while holding the colored pencil still.Most of us do it the other way round (turning the pencil and holding the sharpener still), but if you turn the pencil sharpener instead, it reduces the stress on the colored pencil and reduces breakage.

Are these pencils the same as the regular prismacolors,and do they blend well.

No, the "regular" sets are soft pencils and these are hard. Look at the chart supplied on this page. The soft sets are for blending and shading. These are for hard edges.

P**!

Pencils keep breaking!

The tips of the pencils keep breaking. I sharpen them and they break again. They must have fallen somewhere a lot. This is very annoying.

Tip easily gets broken after sharpening. It crumbles into multiple pieces and won’t give that smooth tip. It’s not a sharpener issue as I have used multiple different sharpeners to test it. Faber castell classic is way better if you’re looking for hard pointed colored pencil.
