Reviews / Votes
"Readers will delight as each flap reveals more secret flaps and the story rolls on with suspenseful cliffhangers." -- Youth Services Book Review "From France via New Zealand, a surreal or, perhaps, metaphorical journey, rich in surprises." -- Kirkus Reviews "A book of the utmost comfort and daydream-drift. I love this book so much, I wish I were the richest woman in the world and could buy a copy for anyone who needs a picture-book comfort boost." -- Poetry Box "Little fingers will be itching to touch (Perrin's) tempting cut-outs of storybook A-frame houses, a faceted diamond and a towering mousse cake. And Perrin's technique of embedding these paper flaps within flaps within yet more flaps creates an Alice in Wonderland sensation of journeying deep into a secret place."Children's Holiday Gift Book Guide, New York Times 2021. -- New York Times
