Ticky, Tacky, Jackie the Backie, Jim with two noses and Jo with the bow fly through time and tear across worlds of fun and excitement.

They face the Jurassic clutches of a toy dinosaur and the snapping jaws of the ovenglove crocodile, and then a very real boy with very real scissors threatens to snip their adventure short…

Based on the original book ‘The Paper Dolls’ – written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated Rebecca Cobb.
