Mr Paper CUTS Elvis Peeters, illustrations Gerda Dendooven Mr Paper cuts a recognisable world for preschoolers, their parents and teachers Award-winning author Elvis Peeters writes about major topics in a light-hearted way Masterful collages by top illustrator Gerda Dendooven Mr Paper cuts and sticks his world. With paper and a pair of scissors at hand he is ready for every challenge. He cuts a bottle of water to slake his thirst, an apple to fight his hunger, and when Cat isn’t in the mood to play, he cuts a dog or a girl to walk with. But not everything he cuts, does as he pleases, bringing him from one unexpected twist to another. And so his life is surprisingly similar to ours.
