Juvenile Fiction. Picture Book Fiction. HTML:Paisley has been sitting on the shelf at Big & Little Toys too long. He's seen other animals come and go, but somehow he's never found his perfect match. And so, taking matters into his own hands, Paisley sets off on a quest to find the special someone he knows is out there for him. He braves many perils in his search, but his intrepid determination is rewarded when he finds the girl of his dreams at last.

Well, that's the way Paisley tells the story. Maggie Smith's wonderfully warm and touchable pictures tell a different tale. In truth, Paisley is mistakenly thrown away, tossed about, and then left in the lost and found at Lolly's Laundry, where a curious little girl happily discovers him.

But when Pearl and Paisley get together, it doesn't matter who found who--they are a perfect match.
Children will laugh at Paisley's almost-true telling of his tale and will readily understand his need to feel like he's in control. Sure to melt your heart, this is a love story that celebrates the power of a positive outlook.

An unwanted blue elephant waited in the toy store patiently for her perfect match. One day she finally decided to set out on her own to find her perfect owner. She traveled through the city, took a bath, and sadly ended up back on a shelf in a store. She jumped into a lost and found box where a little girl finally found her and took her home. She got the name Paisley and her dream came true. This was a great story and I liked the way that he text followed the illustrations on the page, it gave the book a different angle. Also if you pay close attention you can see the little girl early in the story that becomes Paisleys owner. ( )

Paisley is an elephant stuffed animal who has been living on the toy store shelf for far too long. Paisley tells the reader a story about her dream of finding her match (an owner) and her perseverance to find that match. However, the illustrations tell quite a different tale. Poor Paisley is accidentally thrown away at the toy store and travels from a box of garbage to a laundry mat and into the hands of Pearl, the little girl who becomes Paisley’s proud owner. The contrast between what Paisley narrates and what is pictured in the illustrations is clear and is sure to make readers laugh. The illustrations are like mini paintings and the text is laid out on top of them to mirror what is happening. The text is arced and looks like it is bouncing as Paisley is flying in the wind or is angled so that it runs parallel to the roads in the picture. Paisley is endearing, and readers will want to comfort her by pulling her off of the pages and cuddling with her. After reading, you may be jealous of little Pearl, and you may even take a trip to the toy store to find your own Paisley. ( )
