Although the windy season is over, Anya is surprised by the gusts of wind and is keen to find the cause of this, building a paper bridge to cross into the next village. There’s an exquisite quality to the way art is used to create core memories which engage and enchant readers. Clever composition and placement on the page really draw readers in and the use of blue and white feels reminiscent of traditional porcelain in this distinctive book.

a really good contrast between the amount of words and images with and even amount of each worlds (paperlee and forestlee) and told a really nice story. it also has elements of art and crafts as in paperlee as they have to make their own home and everything

The pictures were made out of paper and cardboard which we both found really interesting and different. It inspires us to do some of this at home. We like how it is different from other books, we really enjoyed the story it was fun.

I think that this book is kinda interesting but to be fair I am a bit older than the children this book is for but I think it could use a bit more of a back story.
