It's made from sugar paper, which is great for chalk pastels but not for paint; it would be likely to buckle. Each page is roughly 4.5" by 6.5". What's interesting, though, is the way it unfolds.

As you can see, it creates a spread of four pages, each time. When you turn it over, however, it works slightly differently; there are three pages, then two, then two, then three. Either way, it makes it interesting; how to create visual interest, without making things too cluttered. I can think of a couple of ways of approaching it. The fact that there are two sides, with two structures, means that perhaps I can use both, one on either side. So I'm going to make a small mock up, using a piece of A4 and some crayons, to see how that would work.
Finally, here's the original page, so that you can see how the whole thing was cut and folded...you'll notice that art on paper is not the draw that textile art usually is for the cat (no pun intended)...
