On printed, illustrated paper with cut-out in center to reveal childhood portraits of the authors. 2 folds printed with text; cut center section includes childhood stories. Hand-sewn binding. "Explores the importance of memories and how they continually evolve. Eight memories are described; one on each double page spread with Lori's account consistently on the right page, her sister's on the left. The main details of the story are told in a square that pops out in the middle of the page spread, while peripheral information fills the rest of the page. The image of both sisters, surrounded with textural collage, are revealed throughout the book by the die cuts of the pop up page. The structure of the book reflects the relationship between two sisters who spring from the same environment."--Women's Studio Workshop website. Signed by the author/book artist.
