fabulous addition to your Sabuda collection

Once you have one of his pop-up books, you will be drawn willy-nilly to buy all of the rest. This is not his most sublime effort on two fronts. The art work is in the exact style of the original, so while it is stunning and beautiful, I think it is not as lovely as his absolutely original imaginings. A few of the pop-up effects such as the little baby changing to a pig face(found in one of the mini books within a book) don't work very well, since only the pig is visible unless you go thro contortions to peek inside before ever opening that page. The same with the scene of painting the roses red.

While a great deal of the original text has been abridged, only a couple of the nonsense rhymes that made the original unabridged alice one of my childhoods read aloud favorites has been included.

Overall, the pop up engineering is still stunning, to see Alice's face inside the White Rabbits home with her arms sticking out windows, and her feet out the chimney and front door, the mad hatters tea party, and of course, the very first telescopic view of her fall down the rabbit hole are not to be missed! My 3 1/2 year old sits thro 90% of the story just as long as he can enjoy the pop-ups again and again!

Another great Pop Up!

Hey, you will love this Pop Up! My sisters grandaughter loved it! Of course the adults reading it and popping up each page with her enjoyed it as much as she did and still does. This one is a keeper for life its so well made! So is the wizard of Oz Pop up. buy both! enjoy Poping up!

WOW!!!

Wow! A beautiful book you and your children will love. I bought this book as a gift for my 21 year old niece and she just loved it. It's way better the the pop-up books I grew up with. My 3 year old son loved it also. The book is too delicate for him to handle with out supervision tho. This book won't dissapoint you.
