Disney + Robert Sabuda
I got a new book for my growing pop-up collection — I just couldn’t resist a mashup of two guilty pleasures: Disney and Robert Sabuda (and you can see I couldn’t resist the Happy Meal either; that’s my talking Gingy figure guarding the book!).
It’s a pop-up alphabet book featuring stylized Disney characters and Robert Sabuda’s fabulous paper engineering. But enough said — I will let the photos do the talking.
A for Ariel
C for Cinderella
E for Esmeralda
H for Hercules
M for Mulan
Q for Queen
S for Snow White
V for Villains
Awesome stuff, don’t you think? :)
(Special thanks to Triccie for having this in stock).

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
about 1 year ago - 8 comments
A couple of weeks ago, I introduced eight year old E. (one of the kids I am tutoring) to Roald Dahl via Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It was the first time he was reading it, while I’ve read the book more times than I can count (and once more while he was reading it!),…
The Comical Hotch Potch Doll
about 1 year ago - 10 comments
As you may have seen in the past couple of years, I have been collecting book-related toys and thingamajigs. A couple of months ago, my brother brought home a wonderful Mini Hotch Potch doll to add to my growing collection! The Hotch Potch doll is inspired by The Comical Hotch Potch, or The Alphabet turn’d…
More Maurice Sendak
about 1 year ago - 8 comments
I’ve been a Maurice Sendak fan ever since the book Where the Wild Things Are was read to us in grade school, and for years now, I’ve been trying to complete my Maurice Sendak collection. I’m a little bit closer to that goal this year, as I’ve lucked out on a bunch of Maurice Sendak…
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
about 1 year ago - Comments Off
My cousin Dianne told me I would love the Winnie the Pooh ride at Hong Kong Disneyland, although she said it was a bit complicated to explain, so I would just have to see for myself. As much of a Disney junkie that I am, I’ve gone back and forth on the Disney Pooh. In…

New Pop-ups!
about 2 years ago - 33 comments
I love pop-up books! I think it’s just amazing how paper engineers are finding more and more ways to make pop-up books more complex, and I enjoy the jaw-dropping awe evoked by an ingeniously designed pop-up, and well, these books make me feel like a kid again! I am slowly building up my collection of…
Victorian Doll House
about 2 years ago - 17 comments
I didn’t have a dollhouse when I was a kid — the closest I got were haphazardly stacked boxes with cut-out doors and windows for my Barbies, with mismatched furniture made from odds and ends scavenged around the house. Eventually I got Polly Pocket playsets, which I loved too, but a dollhouse that can fit…
Animal Antics (Picture Book Roundup)
about 2 years ago - 8 comments
I realize I haven’t done any picture book roundups this year, so here’s the first. I have to do these posts more frequently now, as about 60% of the books I acquire are picture books. My logic (whacked, I know, but it makes perfect sense to me) behind this is that because they’re picture books with…

I finally got my copy of The Pop-up Book of Phobias (created and written by Gary Greenberg, illustrated by Balvis Rubess, pop-ups by Matthew Reinhart) from BookMooch, just in time for Halloween. If you’ve tuned in since the last 24-Hour Readathon, you’ll know I’m on a scary book kick, so you’ll be seeing a lot…
