Customer Reviews

Best Ever By a 7yr. old

My son loves this book so much he took it to school to show his classmates. He also read the entire book by himself without help.

Pop-up Pleasure

A wonderful, creative book for any age. Seems sturdy, folds in nicely. It is a bit fat because of the layers but careful children, paper and book artists should enjoy it for many years.

Unique

I have many of Sabuda's popup books. They are all so beautiful. This one is unique and I think his best. The pop up of the horse is hard to believe. I would not have thought that it was possible to create a pop of an animal such as a horse and capture all its majestic beauty. The lion on the first page is - don't know if I should call an art masterpiece or an engineering masterpiece. It is eye-popping. Don't open it too close to your face, it does pop out. Bigger than anything I have this complicated. This is a collector book! Now with Kindle and all that, maybe there will be no books around in 50 years hence, so please buy this book as specimen of when paper was (is) king.
