Lovely story and drawings
It’s a beautiful story. Preschoolers might not get the full import of it but it’s engaging for them nevertheless. The drawings are beautiful, done in the style of water colours.

A must have for kids...and parents
I bought this book for 4yr old daughter, she loved it and so did I. It's a simple story, it repeats itself, so perfect for young ears, but it has a deeper message for adults and that pulled at my heart strings. It's unassuming, but one of those books that will make appearances at the right times.

The story follows a little girl and her paper dolls on a journey filled with adventure and challenges, and the writing style is both accessible and engaging. The illustrations by Rebecca Cobb are stunning and perfectly capture the playful and whimsical nature of the story. Overall, "Paper Dolls" is a delightful and heartwarming book that parents and educators will love reading to their children. It's a must-have for any family's bookshelf, and a perfect choice for a fun and engaging read-aloud.

Dolce storia dai +3
Il libro è arrivato nei tempi indicati in buone condizioni. Il libro è abbastanza grande, il che rende davvero piacevole guardare le immagini coi bambini. La storia è un pò lunga per dei bimbi età Nido, sui 3 anni è più indicato. Si tratta di una storia lunga 1/2 frasi per circa 15 pagine. Alla fine si parla del "giardino della memoria" dove vivono tutte le cose belle che abbiamo visto o che si sono perdute (i fuochi d'artificio, la nonna, le spille, e tante altre cose). L'inglese è semplice e facilmente comprensibile/traducibile. Lo consiglio!
