The Paper Princess: A Classic Picture Book about Creativity and Courage

"The best book yet from this talented author/illustrator, and one that children will love." -- School Library Journal, starred review

"Consistently beautiful." -- The New York Times

A deluxe reissue of a classic picture book about creativity, courage, and imagination, perfect for children who love art, storytelling, and meaningful adventures.

A gust of wind sends a handmade paper princess flying. "Wait I didn't finish you," cries the little girl who made her. "I'll finish myself," calls the princess as the wind carries her away--over a meadow and river, to a carnival and a playground, and finally back home.

This beloved picture book by Elisa Kleven follows one small paper princess on a vibrant, imaginative journey of self-discovery. Told with lyrical simplicity and illustrated in Kleven's signature mixed-media collage, the story celebrates creativity, resilience, and belonging as the princess learns to find her own way in the world.

Here's what makes The Paper Princess a timeless treasure:

- A Beloved Classic Returns: Back in print after years of reader demand, Elisa Kleven's cherished story continues to inspire a new generation of children.

- A Princess Unlike Any Other: This imaginative heroine doesn't rely on castles or crowns. She discovers her strength through creativity, curiosity, and determination.

- Stunning Mixed-Media Artwork: Elisa Kleven's signature collage illustrations create vibrant miniature worlds filled with texture, color, and playful detail.

- A Story About Courage and Belonging: Through her journey, the princess learns that confidence and character grow from within.

- A Deluxe Gift Edition: Featuring foil stamping and sculptural embossing, this edition makes a beautiful keepsake for families and classrooms.

The Paper Princess is a beautiful picture book about imagination, creativity, and finding your way, perfect for young readers, classrooms, and anyone who believes in the power of art and storytelling.
