Book end papers in predominantly yellow, green, and pink. They feature a fairy with her little pet dragon and several butterfly motifs. There is also a pink bookplate that reads βThis book belongs to:β The artistβs name, Deborah Paquette, along with her email address, deborahpaquette@shaw.ca, and her website, www.deborahpaquette.com, are listed.
