1:6 Scale Wesen Book Of Lore, opens and has 22 illustrated pages with hand written text and measures approximately 1 and 7/8 of an inch high by 1 and 1/4 of an inch wide. All of my books interior paper, hardcover book board covers, ink and glues are acid-free archival quality. As you can tell from the photos most of my books are readable. Perfect for your 12-18 inch dolls. I personally design and construct every book. One book can take 2 or more hours of graphic design and research of copyright. This is a collectors item and it is not recommended for small children.
