Summary: alice in pop-up wonderland
Comment: J. Otto Seibold's new wacky and wild edition of Alice in Wonderland is perfect for any body of any age who enjoys Lewis Carroll's classic book. But unlike the many other artists who have illustrated this story, Seibold breathes new life into it by giving the art a very modern and kinda 60's art look. You might call it breaking the traditional Tenniel mold. Like many pop-up books there are many tricks and surprises you can find if you take your time to look. In this book, you can actually open the dull book Alice was reading before she went down the rabbit hole, flip Bill the lizard into the air as many times you want,make Alice's neck grow taller, read the Queen's invitation to the Duchess to play croquet, peep into the crazy cook's oven to find a grumpy little mouse, watch the Chesire cat vanish with only it's grin remaining, among other things. My favorite spread out of the whole book is the one of the tea party. I only have one complaint for this book and its because the spread with the caterpillar on it is hard to fold out and see properly. I would set this book out on my coffee table for every one to see and enjoy, it is that well done. But be careful with it around little kids. Although they don't mean to they could rip it because all pop-up books are fragile. Buy this book for any wonderland fan, I'm sure they will enjoy it.

Summary: Get lost in this 'Wonderland'
Comment: The illustrations in this version of the Carroll tale are rich and imaginative, with eye-popping pop ups alongside the original 'Alice' text.
This pop-up version is destined to be a classic for it's gorgeous designs.

Summary: wonderful and weird.
Comment: I was in the children's book section the other day looking for a gift for a friend's little boy. This book caught my eye -- not for him, but for ME. I don't remember the pop-up books of my youth (admittedly, I only had "T'was the Night Before Christmas" and "Mother Goose") being this spectacular or complex. This book is visually stunning and so viscerally creative. Why only 4 stars? Because honestly, the illustrative style (and the story itself) is kind of creepy and I don't know how appropriate it would be for a small child. But if you're a design geek, this book rocks!
