5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful December 10, 2010
By Karen
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
My mother got my sister a pop-up book every year for Christmas since she was a little girl, my sister is now 40 years old. My mother passed away 6 months ago and I wanted to get my sister a special pop-up book this year. I am so happy that I ordered this book because this is one of the most beautiful pop-up books I have ever seen. The art work is so delicate and has great movement to it. I am sure my sister will absolutely love it and will probably be moved to tears as I was when she reads it. Thank you so much for a beautiful book!
