Customer Reviews

a little jewel of a book!

A simple tale that's been beautifully told, perfect for all ages. I enjoyed it as much as my 6 year old daughter. The illustrations and pop-up details are fabulous and fun.

SUBTLE BUT THOUGHT-PROVOKING

I BOUGHT THE BOOK FOR MYSELF BUT NOW I THINK I WILL PASS IT ON TO MY NIECE WHO HAS GONE THROUGH SOME DIFFICULT TIMES LATELY. IT IS A BOOK THAT ALTHOUGH IS BEAUTIFUL IN IT'S PRESENTATION, ALSO CONVEYS A WAY TO CONFRONT UNPLEASANTRIES IN LIFE. THE AUTHOR WAS QUITE CAPTIVATING IN DESIGNING A BOOK THAT LOOKS SO 'CHILD-LIKE' BUT DEFINITELY IS ENCOMPASSING FOR ADULTS.

A Blessing of a Book

For myself and my child - buy this book! it is highly inventive, and the joy in my daughter's eyes when she sees (and operates herself) the carefully crafted moving parts would be worth it alone, but the message it contains is a lasting one for both adults AND children.

Beautiful Book

I have been a fan of Seonnas for only a year. I love her art. I think she's great. So when I found out that she made a pop up book I was psyched. Totally worth the price. If you are a fan of her art work or just someone that appreciates art then be sure to check this out. The only quarm I had was that there were a couple of pages that were just standard and had nothing cool going on. But the colorful artwork made up for the lack of pop up. Overall the book was a great buy and is really cool. I highly reccommend it.

Suprisingly Touching

This pop-up book for adults and kids alike is short, but beautifully illustrated with a poetic theme that I found suprisingly emotional. A lovely work that you'll return to time and again.
