The gorgeous images move the reader along, following the pages wherever the wind may take us together. I am happy to take the trip, again and again with my children and those of generations to come.

Five stars for art. An unusual story about the birth and life of a newspaper. One of the newspapers was not bought—rather, its pages flew through the air into the lives of different people. During its adventures, the little newspaper saw joy, pain, cold, and heat. Finally, one of its pages lands in the home of a man to whom it brings much joy—but we don’t find out why. A picture book for older children. The little ones may not understand some subtleties.

A bittersweet look at a newspaper yearning to be read. It is a thoughtful story, although I'm unsure of the audience. It's written for children but adults will be more likely to understand the story and feeling. The art is well done, with an old-fashioned feel both for the clothing of the characters and matching the writing of the story. The art is pastel I think, beautiful to look at. I read on a Kindle so colors are likely not true and it's difficult to tell the medium.

This book is hard to judge. It’s not a typical picture book. The illustrations are much more mature, but then again so is the story line. The paper is the main character. It is telling us about his life. About how his pages were scattered in the wind to become something different to different people, and how he questioned his life until he found a reader. I liked this book, and I can see an audience with adults, I have a hard time picturing a child reading and understanding this story. It’s very good, but also complicated in a way not normally found for this age group.

A Page in the Wind boasts distinctive illustrations filled with details of what the life of a newspaper could be like. We see it "born" as it's printed and then its fate when, instead of being purchased at the stand, the wind catches it and, page by page, we follow its path.

The language is simple but has a power behind that simplicity -- we see a folded page used as a firestarter with the accompanying text, "I lived through times of heat." On the opposite page, we see it covering a shuddering person as they try to sleep with the text, "And times of cold." There's the gamut of emotions while we learn about strangers in passing; even with the limited text, the illustrations and words work seamlessly together to communicate with the reader.

I wasn’t a big fan of “A Page in the Wind” at first, because I didn’t understand who was speaking. Once I figured the story out, it improved. The author definitely has a creative mind and I enjoyed the illustrations.

A Page in the Wind is a beautiful executed story on many levels. The gorgeous illustrations are how this tale is told, as one little newspaper begins to have a life of many purposes. His pages are scattered across the a small village and used in a variety of ways ... to start a fire, keep a homeless person warm during a cold night, to line a bird cage, clean a mirror, and finally to bring long-awaited happy news to a once sad man.
Such a lovely little story that would be a great source of discussion about point of view and meaning of life. I give it five stars! The artwork is simply exquisite!

Thank you to #NetGalley and the publisher for a pre-publication ebook in exchange for an honest review.

If you weren’t paying attention, you would think this is a story about a baby. Instead it talks about a newly printed newspaper, but one with special powers, because it retains a central memory, as well as sensory abilities to know what each of its individual pages is seeing and feeling.
Some of the individual pages’ destinations were much more inglorious than others. There’s one point where it’s very hopeful about a woman, only to get sarcastic when things don’t work out the way it wants.
So, basically a journey through a city and all its various peoples, but also a journey through life.
The artwork, both the style and its subjects, seems very European, although the creators are from South America; if I had to choose an artist that this reminds me of, I’d pick Cezanne.
3.5 pushed up to 4/5

A beautifully drawn children's book with a really cute story. I think both kids and adults will enjoy reading this one. I'm excited to share this one with my 11 yo daughter as I think she will especially love the artwork. I think this is one that will be revisited by all who have read it. I don't think just one read-through will be enough to satisfy as the artwork gives you so much to look at each time you open the book.

A beautifully illustrated story of how even a small thing can travel far and wide. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a light and fun read that could possibly give you the feels.

Who would ever thought that a newspaper can be a character? Certainly not me.
But this book did a great job telling a story of newspaper.
A Page is the Wind is a heartwarming book filled with beautiful illustration!
And how come a newspaper can make someone feel touched? I don't know.
The story is just soooo lovely. One thing that I wish I know more is the ending. I would love it if they can elaborate or explain a little bit more :)

What a whimsical little children's book! As an adult, I enjoyed reading about the little newspaper whose pages lived many different lives when blown away around the town. It's important for children to practice taking the perspective of others and this one should let children's imaginations soar like the pages in the wind. The townspeople could be from a different culture and generation than the reader which helps expand horizons. It is nice that the book features a physical newspaper as the new generation gets most of their information from digital sources now. I read this via an eBook galley from NetGalley but would recommend it be read via physical copy with a child.

Pages in the wind: A book that will make you ugly cry because of a newspaper.
"I came into the world early one morning, in a large, cold place."

I absolutely love mixed-medium children's books. The style is never clean and crisp, but homely and rough. It gives the air of a cloudy day, cuddled up with your child in a little reading nook with the rain gently beating down in the window.

I have a special place in my heart for books not written in the perspective of humans, but objects or animals. In this case, our protagonist is a newspaper.

"There were other newborns like me, and we all kept one another warm"
Every newspaper is taken by a special person and their new life begins, except the last little newspaper. He falls apart, gets pulled this way and that by the wind and goes on a journey of a lifetime. The newspaper helps each person his pages stumble upon.

The newspaper comes alive with colour, with cages and shyness. He finds love and pain. Lastly, he finds a disconsolate man like himself. And I won't spoil what happens, but it is wonderful, it is warm and belonging - it is life.

This is the best picture book I have read all year, and I cannot articulate how beautiful and integral this book is to our hearts. Its message and art matches the Little Prince. I recommend this book to everyone and everything.

'A Page in the Wind' is a wonderfully illustrated tale told by a newspaper as it journeys on the breeze to different people and different uses. Sanabria's simple text is perfect for a relaxing read-aloud with children. The painted illustrations are eye-catching and seem almost from a post-Impressionist time. The uses of the newspaper are old-fashioned-- a make-shift umbrella, a quick dusting rag, and liner for a bird cage. But the paper finds its purpose with someone who reads it.. A fine addition for a picture book collection.

This book is either too esoteric for young to understand, or else it is just the right kind of feeling that children will ponder and try to come up with stories of their own as to how the newspaper got scattered all over the city.

What is a newspaper good for? In the book it is used to line a bird's cage, or build a fire.

But, the final and best use for a newspaper, beyond making them into paper boats, and using them for an umbrella, is to actually read them, and thant is when we are shown someone with happiness so wonderful it makes them giddy.

Cute book. Nice illustrations. Not quite sure what the message is, but perhaps it is that we are destined for many things, far beyond what we thought we would do for a living.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this an honest review.

A Page in the Wind is a gorgeous book! The images might not appeal to everyone at first glance, but the more you look, the more there is to see. There is no strong story here, but I think that's actually one of the strongest elements of the book.

This is my favourite kind of book to read with little ones aged 3-5 because it's so easy to get them using their own imaginations to fill in the details of the story on their own. This book will be read over and over and will simply grow more charming with each read.

A true gem.

Thank you to NetGalley and NorthSouth Books Inc. for a free electronic ARC of this novel, received in exchange for an honest review.

Children's books often give life lessons to their readers in short, clever ways. A Page in the Wind could be a parable for a life's unknown journey, experience and affect on society. Jose Sanabria and Maria Laura Diaz have produced an exemplary book for young minds. I can't say enough good things about the beautiful, detailed illustrations-- They are fantastic. I highly recommend this book to parents and teachers of young children.

I received this book in exchange for an honest review through NetGalley.

A Page in the Wind is the "life story" of a newspaper from the printer to the adventures of each page as life is changed by the people it comes in contact with and in turn the newspaper changes the life of a man who reads it. A simple sentence on each page with a collage illustration will keep the attention of young readers and adults will enjoy and appreciate the heart-warming metaphors. A charming read for readers of all ages but especially for the intended young readers who will use their imagination to fill in this unique story.
Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for offering an ARC to review.

A surprise, this – you'd never really think a newspaper could be the narrating character in a book for the very young. Nor really would you expect the artwork here to be ideal for a children's book, as it's kind of dingy, grubby and lifelike, but it works. The story is simply told, one sentence per page, so every beat of the story acts as a splash page on its own, and the impact of the gentle, pleasant tale is conveyed. I'd go for this – it has the unusual, plus the heart-warming. It's a little left-field, but it deserves to be a success.

Newspaper pages get pressed into service in some ordinary ways, but the contents of one page provides some magic for one reader. Colorful illustrations
