review 1: Quite possibly the most precious and wonderful crafty book out there right now. I've been a fan of Emily and her Black Apple blog for a while and this book really brings her blog to life. The characters and dolls she's created (with adorable back stories and likes/dislikes) are beautiful and quirky. Every time I thought there possibly couldn't be any more stuff included in the book there was! Painted backdrops! Design your own doll! Pages of instructions and tips on how to use the book to it's best advantage: making puppets & greeting cards & ornaments etc. I would not call myself a paper doll enthusiast but Emily made me a believer. This book is awesome. (And I've taken her tip by making color copies with my printer. There's no way I would cut into this book. It's too pre... moretty.)
review 2: I want to be any doll in this book. So let's pretend I am. Here's my paper doll profile (a la Emily Martin):Daisy would be happy to never get out of her pajamas on a rainy day. She had a great-great aunt who said you should never be without a pair of red shoes. She is not ticklish.Likes: Fog; the sound of a spoon hitting the bottom of a full milkshake glass; fog.Dislikes: Clapping; lost pets; slime. less
