to all the toys scattered across the
bedroom, promising to pick them
up tomorrow.
Gérard Lo Monaco’s talent with
paper is used to create an ingenious
three-dimensional world of
toys presented through endearing
vignettes dreamt up by a child’s
creative mind. Lively onomatopoeias
add playfulness to every page,
making it fun to read this pop-up
book aloud while turning its pages.

Review:
“A gorgeous pop-up book.”
"On each of 10 splendidly crafted pages, classic toys spring up – from an elephant on wheels and a doll cradle to a fire engine with eight little firefighters. The paper engineering is the finest you’ll find, the spare text playful, perfect. Your heart may melt every time you reach the 'lights out' page and the child says 'Good night, my toys.'"
“Delightful . . . One of the nice features is that the pop-ups are activated simply by opening each page, and the book has no fragile moving parts, meaning it should survive repeated use.”
―Booklist
“This small world of paper is a big treasure of creativeness and knowledge.”
―Kid’s Wear Magazine
“A paper engineered work of art . . . an utter delight.”
―picturebooksblogger
"I would have happily used this book in my beginning reader story times as an engaging way to introduce a toy or play theme. I also love the way all the toys come together at the end in a nighttime scene on the floor of a child's bedroom."
"I don't think you're ever too old to enjoy pop up books, especially one as beautiful as The Small Word of Paper Toys...Each page is brimming with color and vibrant details offering a nostalgic glimpse into timeless toys we all love and recognize.”
"This small and simple pop up book will have little ones flipping pages again and again...I can’t stop looking at it!”
“With the ‘up' flip of each page, this beautifully crafted small pop-up reveals a specific nostalgic toy . . . The spare text makes this ideal for bedtime.”
"A cavalcade of diminutive, neatly designed pop-ups evokes toys of yesteryear . . . A tidy showcase . . . (with) potential for return visits.”
