An irresistible companion to Kesinger's books Becky M Whimsical, colorful, beautifully drawn in exquisite detail! If you actually plan to cut out the paper dolls, the costumes are well crafted and fit the figures precisely. However - DON"T follow the directions in the front of the book and separate the octopus heads from the bodies.. "Whimsical + octopus = win" according to Daniel Sank. It has an octopus and the illustrations are wonderful. What more do you need?. Amazon Customer said admittedly I'm biased because I love anything octopus. OKAY. admittedly I'm biased because I love anything octopus, steam punk or paper doll related and holy lord, he hit all three. Let me tell you about this book. It's for paper dolls right? But it's so gosh darn beautiful that I can't bring myself to even cut them out. 10/10 would recommend.
