Koray Avcı Çakman & Lütfü Er
What if words could speak? What if books could dream?
In this whimsical and thoughtful collection, books whisper their secrets, pencils beg to be used before their ideas vanish, and forgotten words tumble from pages to build new worlds.
Each story celebrates imagination and empathy: a girl dreams of saving The Little Match Girl with a better ending, a book longs to escape the shelf, and words themselves wonder where they truly belong.
The Paper World is a love letter to reading, storytelling, and the quiet, transformative power of words.
