Book Description

Publication Date: May 12, 2009 | Age Level: 4 and up | Grade Level: P and up | Series: Little Golden Books

From the Golden archives, a paper-doll book from the golden age of fashion!

It's a wedding day wonderland in this glamorous, lushly illustrated paper-doll book, originally published in 1952. The lovely bride, her attendants, her groom, and the groom’s best man are featured on the front and back covers, ready to be punched out and dressed—and their stunning wardrobes for the big day (and the ski trip honeymoon in Sun Valley) don’t disappoint! Even the background artwork is lush, with its ribbons and cupids and wedding bells, ice buckets, ring boxes and bellhops, bringing a dream wedding to life. Little and big girls alike, and all fashion enthusiasts, will ooh and ahh over the clothing styles—and a lifestyle—of a more glamorous time.

I was delighted with this paper doll book which is a gift for a bride to be. You just can't get cute items like that here in Ireland so I was very pleased with the product, the price and the delivery.

Originally published in 1952, here is a wonderful edition to your paper doll reproductions collection. The dolls and clothes are smaller than the "Beautiful Bride" paper dolls which are also by Golden, even though the books are the same size. The clothes and dolls are bright and colorful, a very fitting "blast from the past!"
