The shadow books are simply amazing! The shadow books are simply amazing! I love how my kids can play with them for hours and be entertained. I also appreciate the many ways you can play with them! In the dark and also using it as silhouettes! I highly recommend them. The quality of the books are also amazing! They are thick and sturdy!

My advice, get the personages The quality of the books and cut outs are wonderful. This is a family project/activity, not a bedtime read. Great for family game night or camp outs. It took multiple attempts in different settings to get the light, distance and height just right to display the shadow, and several sets of hands. The only light that we've found to work is the phone flashlight. We tried flashlights, lamps, camp lanterns. As the website says, a light with one bulb, no reflectors or lens works best. My 5 year old loves the shadows but the personages are her favorite.

Great I bought several books from Shadow Play - for my daughter and as a gift. My little one especially likes to play with a figures. Highly recommend.

Combination of storytelling and shadows… Combination of storytelling and shadows play! My kids loved it. We were reading and acting the characters, playing with voices, creating our own stories everyone had fun. We picked “The Snow Queen” story that was a great addition to our Elf from the Shelf tradition. There so many activities you can create with this book! Plus, it’s gadget free family bonding time. Good gift for coming holidays!
