Sweet old fashioned kind of book - has
This is the new-old fashioned book of paper dolls with dress ups - they are easy to press out of the card as they are pre cut and there is a sweet little wardrobe in the book at the end where you can store all the dresses etca couple of dolls means that your girls can play more than one game at the timethis is abotu felicity a fairy who trys to get spring to come early - however she goes around with her wand and ends up freezing cold - it takes the spring fairy, Floella, with her specially heated wand to do the job you see.The story is a bit weak, but the illsutrations are nice and colourful, there is some lovely extra details, all the wings have glitter on them and even some of the dresses and linings of the clothing.It makes a very bright and nice book to look at but my girls aren't really interested in the story, it is not that strong.I remember playing with paper dolls when I was young but we didn't ahve as many dolls as you can get now, so I think my daugthers find these more of a novelty than a toy to play alone. They play with them occassionally but do enjoy just flicking through and looking at the pictures in the book. So it is a successful book from that point of view.

Wonderful for a 3 year old
My 3 year old daughter received this book from a special friend for her b-day 2 mos ago and to this day this is her favorite book of the moment. She's getting interested in the notion of time, so the simple concept of a change of season is of interest to her. The text is simple, yet there is more than a sentence per page which is a good transition from the traditional toddlers' books she's used to. As for the paper dolls, it kept us busy for an one-time project but they did not last long. We tried to stick our constructions in the little armoir in the back of the book, very bright idea, but after a couple of times of taking them out everything fell apart- which I expected from paper dolls' childhood memories. It's not a reflection of the quality of the paper dolls material as it is very sturdy. Still a wonderful gift for a 3-4 year old little girl. I am currently looking into acquiring a couple of additional titles as the style of writing and content fit our needs at the moment.
