Evaluate Appertaining To Books This Is for You

Rob Ryan is such an amazing artist. This book is a wonderful introduction to anyone to the extent of his talents and creativity. It is basically a picture book for adults with the dialogue woven directly into the paper cuts. The story that is revealed through the art is sweet and heart felt, somewhat depressing yet uplifting. Written from the man's perspective it focuses of his loneliness until his mothers tells him that one day he will find the person who will fill the void in his heart. He is

I thought this was going to be a collection of his images, but instead it is a story --- one of the most beautiful picture books ever. I've been reading Rob Ryan's blog and admiring his work for over a year, and this was just one more way to experience it. A beautiful book by a beautiful artist.

A lovely book. I liked that you almost couldn't tell the drawnings and the words apart. Maybe I expected just a little bit more, but I'm not disappointed, because frankly this should deserve 4 stars for the drawnings alone.

Adult (nonfiction). A tale of loneliness and waiting, as told by one man through his exquisitely crafted papercutting. Pretty depressing, really, but meant (I think) to be uplifting. Lovely artwork nonetheless.

Originally posted on Once Upon a Bookcase.As soon as I saw this book on the shelf, I knew I had to have it. Without knowing what it was about. Had to have it. Last year at work, we had a beautiful window display for Rob Ryan's picture book, The Invisible Kingdom. It was so, so beautiful! And I knew, when I saw This Is For You, I had to have this book for my own, knowing it will be just as beautiful. What I didn't expect was for This Is For You to be so deeply moving!Everything in this book is

Sans any expectations or really any idea of what this book entailed, I plucked this copy from a shelf in the art section and decided to give it a go on a whim-- and boy, I did not know that this lovely collection of paper art would also succinctly encapsulate the complex human experience. Ryan not only creates charming and intricate paper art with lovely nature inspired motifs, but weaves a poignant and fiercely honest meditations on loneliness, love, existentialism, and hope.
