This is by far the best of the best drawn by Tom. Every page was a gasp from my mouth, as each gown appeared, and I love this book for the color and designs of its time! If you love the designers of the Old World, Paquin, Worth, Channel, Schiparelli, Poiret, Lanvin etc., they are all here to enjoy and admire. This was for sure one of my all-time favorite Tom Tierney paper doll books, and I have been collecting his work for almost 15 years!

I bought this for my granddaughter for her 8th birthday, along with three other Tom Tierney paper doll books. She was thoroughly enchanted. The other mothers at the birthday party 'oohed' and 'aahed' over the books. They all noted how difficult it is to find paper dolls anymore and couldn't believe the beautiful quality. It may seem quaintly old fashioned but it was nice to sit and visit with my granddaughter as we cut out the pretty outfits. Soon the older sister joined in, as well as my daughter-in-law and her mother as well! We actually spent three hours with no arguments! That has to be a first in our family! ;^)

These are so much fun and just beautiful. Quality paper and vivid printing.
