Puffin in Bloom
Introduction & Series Review
The Puffin in Bloom collection includes a variety of children's and older reader nostalgic classics with whimsical floral cover art by the principal artist behind renowned stationery brand Rifle Paper Co, Anna Bond.
The books are ‘naked' hardcovers (i.e. no dust jacket), with delightful cover and spine designs, monochrome illustrated endpapers, and floral borders around a classic quote from the book on the back cover. At the back of each book, you will also find additional information about the author, the characters, a glossary, and other useful details. These titles also come in boxed sets, which may be cheaper than buying the titles individually.
Formats
The standard hardcovers are relatively small in format (around 7.5″ x 5.4″), which is very comfortable for a child reader, but this does result in longer volumes like Little Women ending up quite fat which can put stress on the spine. Several of the titles have also been released as ‘Penguin Mini‘ paperback editions which are very small and cute (around 4.6″ x 3.3″ – half the size of your standard postcard!). The deluxe editions have custom sprayed page edges, full color endpapers and a ribbon bookmark.
Alice in Wonderland is the only fully illustrated title that has been released so far (it's also larger and absolutely gorgeous).
Shelf Appeal
The pretty spines are sure to draw the eye, but the covers will show marks if not handled gently. The endpapers are illustrated in monochrome with characters and small scenes and flowers from the story, but the paper book block is glued, which may reduce their longevity. The books are not illustrated. (I know Amazon often says they are illustrated, but this refers to the cover style, not the contents).

Wait, I’m confused. There’s a deluxe edition?? But only ONE? Why?? 😭
I want all the collection titles with those beautiful sprayed edges!
I went to Rifle Paper’s website expecting to find more information, but I couldn’t find anything. I did find a Sense and Sensibility deluxe edition at B&N, though, yay!
Does that mean the other titles will likely be released too?
Or have they already been released and are now sold out?
If they’re yet to be released, do you think it’s better to wait for a boxed set?
Some of the standard editions aren’t available in boxed sets. Do you have any guesses as to whether they’ll ever be?
Btw, these books use bible paper, right? That’s really unusual for me.

Yes! Exciting that Sense and Sensibility is also going to released in a deluxe edition. Hopefully if they sell well, they’ll release the others (these are the first with sprayed page edges). I’m not sure if we’ll get the other standard editions in a boxed set, it has been quite a while and they haven’t done it yet. The paper in my editions is thin, but not quite bible paper thin. They usually do this when the books are long and they want to keep a thinner spine.
