"A surefire inspiration for imagination-fueled projects at school or at home."

- Publishers Weekly - STARRED REVIEW

"A book that at first glance might seem minimalist to the point of vacuity bears closer scrutiny when one appreciates the function the paper shapes can have in allowing a child to identify them in different orientations and even to practice counting."

- Kirkus Reviews

"Manceau offers just enough possibilities to ignite youngsters' imaginations, then sends them off to try some creations of their own."

- Shelf Awareness

"An effective tale for young children, using deceptively, delightfully simple design work."

- Booklist

"Windblown is a book that screams, 'Turn me into a craft already!!!'…It reaches its full potential when the concept of the book is translated in real life. I hope that happens often."

- 100 Scope Notes

"The story will appeal to the imagination of the early-years set."

- Canadian Review of Materials

"While this book at first seems as minimalist and innovative as Herve Tullet's Press Here, a more traditional story line soon emerges as several characters appear, providing a cumulative narration in which each claims ownership of the shapes."

"This book makes a useful jumping off point for a paper making activity, a weather activity on wind, or even a litter collection activity in the classroom!"
