Too nice to play with! (But there are ways...),
By
This review is from: Japanese Kimono Paper Dolls (Paperback)
I consider this to be more of a coffee table book than an actual paper doll book. The costumes are gorgeous with really great details and remind me a lot of old Japanese woodblock prints. However, if you or your child really want to cut these out for play or display, I would recommend scanning or copying the costume pages separately so that you can play with them but not ruin the whole book.

GREAT BOOK!!!,
By HN (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Japanese Kimono Paper Dolls (Paperback)
Out of all Ming-ju Sun's illustrated books, I like this one the best. There are 26 costumes, all of which are wonderfully detailed. There are explanations and descriptions of all of the kimonos. There are two paper dolls, one facing to the left and the other facing to the right. For almost each costume, there is an ornate head piece-a wig of sorts. I recommend this book for anyone who is interested in Kimonos or simply Japanese Art. This is a nice book just to have on the shelf where you can flip through it and look at the pictures. I don't, however, recommend cutting the costumes out. Some of the details on the head pieces and on the kimonos may be lost. A real treasure and a great value. Buy it today!

Japanese Kimon Paper Dolls in Full Color,
By A Customer
This review is from: Japanese Kimono Paper Dolls (Paperback)
This book of richly colored paper dolls is great for anyone interested in Japanese history or fashion. Also great for teachers doing units on Japan and Aisa. The dolls in the book are designed after prints by Japanese artists. In the back of the book it describes and tells the history of each of the kimonos. It also contains a small history of the Kimono and Japanes clothing. There are 26 kimonos and 2 dolls.
