Have just bought THE MOST AMAZING BOOK for my children

[Twiglett]

we are totally enraptured by it .. DD is nearly 3, DS and friend are 6 .. I think a 10 year old would love it too (it says 6+) .. I love it

it's the most fabulous version of Alice in Wonderland by Robert Sabuda.. gloriously pop-up .. very true to the original text

and was only £7.99 from the book people

oh its so very very gorgeous

Thanks Twiglett! my dd is mad about Alice in Wonderland/Through the looking glass - but we do struggle with original version so this will be ideal - plus it's her birthday quite soon!

gosh Mercy you should see it .. from the first page with the big spreading oak tree and rabbit hole through the mad hatter's tea party to the final page when the cards attack

glorius truly glorius

glorious truly glorious

and

Oooh - we have a pop-up dinosaur book by the same bloke and it is fabulous.

We have the dinosaur and the sea monsters one. Both favourites of DS (and DH).

here

It is astonishing. Ds adores it.

could an almost 3 year old handle the dino pop up? looks good

Um, with close supervision...

Or is that just my three-year-old?

my DD is 3 in May .. I have been reminding her not to destroy the pop-ups but they seem fairly robust to the initial picking at before I can stop her IYSWIM

we have only just got it today though

gorgeous

Cheers Califrau.

That's next year's Christmas cards sorted.

Thanks for this Twiglett. The books look er, gorgeous with both the Alice and Dinosaur ones being very appropriate for my 2 dds.

What a great present for someone too!

Thanks Twig...i think i might get ds this for easter..it sounds fabulous

Did you see the pop up bat instructions ? They look fab. Thanks for the link, Califrau.

Sorry - and thanks to Twiglett too, the book looks gorgeous. I'd never heard of Robert Sabuda before.
