Eye popping popups,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bugs Pop-up: Creepy Crawlers Face-to-Face (Hardcover)
The popups are amazing, huge and very impressive. Little boys will love them. I like to collect popup books, so my main interest is in the quality of the popups which is very very good.
Buy the book if you have young buy. He will be sure to be delighted. I am buying several copies to give as gifts at Christmas time to my young relatives.

This review is from: Bugs Pop-up: Creepy Crawlers Face-to-Face (Hardcover)
My 8year old and 5 year old love this book! (along with the sea creatures book by the same illustrator) I absolutely love the pop ups. The scale and colors are amazing. I read it to a 1st grade class and all of the kids were blown away.

Fantastic book - but don't open without some preperation....,
By Minty Snipes (Southern Massachusetts, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bugs Pop-up: Creepy Crawlers Face-to-Face (Hardcover)
I gave this to my 4 year old son for christmas. He and his 5 year old sister opened it together and when the first page unfolded, it looked like a tarantula the size of a small dog was attacking them. My daughter struck it in self defense as she screamed and backed away, and my son ran and hid behind our easy chair. For those of you with little ones, it may be a good idea to open it from a distance, and slowly, the first time around.
After the initial fright, and my showing them the bugs are made of paper and getting them to actually touch each one so they knew they weren't real, they are absolutly enthralled with the book. Each of the bugs are very cleverly designed. I can't see this as anything but a big win for any kid.
