Chatting Books Online Day 164. It's time for another of my favorites the exquisite Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: a pop-up adaptation of Lewis Caroll's Original Tale by Robert Sabuda.
As you all have heard before the beautiful pop-up books imagined by Robert Sabuda and/ or Matthew Reinhardt are among my favorite things. (period, end of sentence) This book has the privilege of having been the first one we began carrying in the bookshop that actually introduced me to the fabulous feats of engineering and art that these books exemplify.
The very first page starts with a rabbit hole in which Alice actually falls as you put your eye near the hole and lean back (now who thought of that ?! ) When you look at one of these books you will immediately be wooed by what poops up in the center of each page but don't forget to open the small sections on the side of each page too, they are not JUST the text but they are also each interactive , intricate pop-ups as well!
If you haven't started your collection yet you really need to now. This book currently sells for $34.99 a copy but prices on these masterpieces have increased several times over the years so that is not a guaranteed future price.
The distributor's website puts the target age for this book at 4-8 years but we have many older children as well as adults who collect these works of art as well.
To purchase a copy of this book come see us Mondays - Saturdays between 10:30am and 4pm at the shop, or you can message me and we can ship a copy directly to you. Take Care, Mask Up, and Remain Curiouser and Curiouser !
