Putin’s Birthday Gift This Year a Coloring Book Instead of a Racy Calendar

For Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin’s birthday a group of students put together a coloring book called “Vova and Dima” (affectionately referring to Putin and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev). The book tells the story of hard work, good habits and the friendship between the two young boys, reports Lenta.ru.

The idea for the coloring book belongs to the same group who last year published a controversial calendar of pouting women posing in lingerie as a birthday gift to Putin. Note, another group of journalists in Russia reacted to the calendar by publishing a calendar of their own with girls dressed in black with their mouths taped shut.
