GBGood gift I received the book as a gift for my son's birthday. It wasn't easy to figure it out at the beginning, but my child showed imagination and now every evening we fall asleep with Shadow play. Sometimes we fantasize and invent our own fairy tale with heroes. The child is happy and so am I, now if we are asked: "What do we want as a gift?" I know what my son wants. This will be a new book of Shadow play.

GBNicely made, but bad story. The physical book is very nicely made. The cutouts are sharp and look good. I purchased the Halloween book. I was very disappointed in the actual story. The book has a picture of a witch riding on a broom. The story is about two kids who's vegetable garden comes alive. Hardly a spooky Halloween story. Nothing to do with a witch. Again, very disappointed.

GBMy 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.

CAAn amazing experience OMG!!! That’s how I want to start my review for this absolutely amazing book. It’s such a joy to read it and to play with it. Even though I bought it for our kids I myself (as a woman who once was a girl looking for mysteries and fairytales in every day life) enjoyed it immensely. It’s very user friendly and if you are not in the mood to tell the whole story yourself you can just turn on the audio version of the book that you can very easily open using QR code. If your kids are old enough they can use it too or maybe you will let them tell their own version of “Nutracker”, just to see where their imagination take you. All my family absolutely loved this experience and I’m sure we will read and play with this book many times. The shadow book helps you to create memories your kids won’t forget. I wish I had something like this when I was little. If you are looking for something that brings a joy in your life and at the same time you want to share it with your family - this book is a right choice.
