This stunning gift book, with hand-cut paper art and lyrical text by an award-winning poet, leads you deep into the forest . . . and out again into the light.
 
Listen: the forest is calling. Take a quiet walk through the woods, where shadows fall in the darkness, eyes peek out, and some animals sleep while others run and leap. Simple, poetic text and intricate papercut illustrations introduce children to a deer, black rook, fox, rabbit, and many more beautiful creatures as they wait for morning—and spring—to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful book

Beautiful imagery, detailed paper cutouts and poetic story. I have yet to give it to my daughter so don’t know how it will designate, but I love it. Feels like a walk into the woods.

Note: though material is sturdy, intricate cuts of pages may be too delicate for younger children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magical book
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2022

I read this with my 3 1/2 year old boy who is wild and somehow this book enraptures him. He quiets down, snuggles up and listens closely when I read this magical story. It’s feels special like a secret shared with a friend. He is extra gentle with the pages and loves how the cut outs make this different than all the other pop up books. He loves pointing to the different forest critters. I highly recommend this book, I only wish there were more like it. Yes the pages are fragile but it’s a wonderful opportunity to teach kids how to be gentle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Detail so intricate, it’s stunning.
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2023

This book is beautiful. The words are sweet but it’s the artwork and the intricate cut outs that leave you breathless. This may be the prettiest book that has ever spoken to me. I have purchased two for myself, one to frame entering the forest and one to frame exiting the forest. This will also become a gift for a new mom or an aging friend.
This book was originally purchased for a new baby and though it is perfect, a young toddler will quickly both love this and tear it to pieces( without supervision) but purchase it anyway. You will never regret it.

I wasn't sure what to expect with regard to the book being papercut and so when I received it and saw how it was put together I found it perfectly magical! I am a Druid and I am always looking for ways to share nature with my granddaughter who is just a few years old. This was a great purchase!

Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2023

The book is absolutely beautiful, great calming story, and I love reading it to my kids. I'm only sad it doesn't come as a board book because the pages are so incredibly delicate, which makes it impossible for my kids to completely enjoy as I don't want the pages to get torn. Therefore this is not a book I reach for often with them. Hopefully in their older days as they learn to be a bit more careful and are learning to read we can crack it open more.

Beautifully crafted children's book with gorgeous artistry and detailed thoughtfulness. Elaborate but simple at the same time. Just an incredible book that our 3 year old really loves but also us adults love it too! I have also given this book as a gift to many of our other parent friends and has always been a hit!

Nicely made book, highlighting the changes experienced in the seasons while walking through a woodland area. I keep it in mind when I am taking my daily walks in all kinds of weather. Helps you be mindful of your surroundings.

3.0 out of 5 stars I a little underwhelming
Reviewed in Canada on March 17, 2024

I thought I would be more “wowed” when I got it. It’s more cut outs than anything. Not a pop up book. The story is boring and not something magical that a child would be interested in.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed!
Reviewed in India on April 8, 2024
Verified Purchase
The book showed a potential to be another hit with children. It looks like it's a pop-it work, but it isn't. And my toddler kept feeling all the pages assuming they pop or there's a texture.
It's a flattened out images of I'm sure a very well done hand crafted book. I wish that was what the publishers sold! Alas!

It is a nice book, but I thought it would have more pages and more depth. Depth is mainly given by drawing, and not by pages.
