An office at night is reimagined as a fantastical kingdom of paper
complete with friendly dragons in this own voices picture book.
When the babysitter is unable to come, Daniel is woken out of bed and
joins his parents as they head downtown for their jobs as nighttime
office cleaners. But the story is about more than brooms, mops, and
vacuums. Mama and Papa turn the deserted office building into a
magnificent kingdom filled with paper. Then they weave a fantasy of
dragons and kings to further engage their reluctant companion--and even
encourage him to one day be the king of a paper kingdom.
The Paper Kingdom expresses the joy and spirit of a loving family who
turn a routine and ordinary experience into something much grander.
Magical art by Pascal Campion shows both the real world and the fantasy
through the eyes of the young narrator.
