I love this book and have given it to many children in my family. It not only captivates the children but the adults are amazed by it, too.
Awesome book!!
I have purchased a number of Sabuda's books for a friend who collects pop-ups. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was truly impressive. As you open each page, you marvel at the intricacies of the pop-ups and wonder at how they were created and then mass produced. This book is well worth the purchase for anyone who loves the fantasy and charm of the pop-up book.
Pop up book collector
If you are a pop up book collector and a fan of the Wizard of Oz... this book is wonderful!
Sabuda Does It Again
Robert Sabuda is a master of the pop-up book and this is the second one I purchased of an adaptation of a famous children's story, and once again it does not dissapoint.
A good telling of the story combined with some incredible pop-ups, the one of the Emerald City makes you feel like you are in the story.
If you are a collector or have children you must get at least one of these books. Make sure you read it with the younger ones to show how books should be handled properly, though make sure they really understand before letting them use the book on their own.
Wonderful Wizard is Wonderful
I bought this book as a birthday present for my Dorothy-obsessed 3-year old and she LOVES it. I was a little worried that it would be seriously abridged when I read that it only had 16 pages, but no need to fear. Within each page is a chapter of the book so there is plenty of story. It takes almost an hour to read it to her but it is well-worth it.
