“This was the first book I made in honor of Donna’s birthday. The edition was limited to correspond with her age. I wanted to make this a miniature book, but did not really want to fragment the sentences. I did not know about accordion books at the time, but looking at an old book with an inset map provided the idea for folding the pages.”
