The Paper Menagerie Book Review: The title story of this collection — "The Paper Menagerie" — is the only work of fiction to win the Hugo, the Nebula, and the World Fantasy Award. All three. For a short story. And when you read it, you understand why. It's about a boy whose Chinese mother makes him origami animals that come to life, and what happens when he grows up and becomes ashamed of her. It's about fifteen pages long and it will leave you on the floor.
