A Great Pop-Up Book for all Ages,
This review is from: Derby Day: A Pop-Up Celebration of the Kentucky Derby (Hardcover)
This book is excellent for children of all ages. It brings to life the excitement of the Kentucky Derby. The book adds fun with it's colorful and imaginative pop-ups and tells the complete story of the race. Includes well researched historical background and photos of past Kentucky Derby's. I loved how the author included a recording of the "Call to the Post".
If you enjoy this book, you will also enjoy "Macy's on Parade".
