"Robert Sabuda's most recent popup book is as spectacular as his last one (The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Popup) — a feat I didn't think possible. His three-dimensional version of Alice is so magical that it induces a sense of wonder that's rarely experienced outside of childhood, when everything is fresh and new. What a treasure! I await new Sabuda creations with the anticipation normally reserved for Philip Pullman or Lemony Snicket creations." Robin, from Staff Top 5s 2003
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is Robert Sabuda's most amazing creation ever, featuring stunning pop-ups illustrated in John Tenniel's classic style. The text is faithful to Lewis Carroll's original story, and special effects like a Victorian peep show, multifaceted foil, and tactile elements make this a pop-up to read and admire again and again.
Review:
"The quintessential Victorian children's classic, Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland has been gloriously re-envisioned by pop-up master Sabuda. The bizarre settings and rude creatures of Wonderland burst out with every turn of the page, starting with an ingenious peep-show rabbit hole and ending with an explosion of cards." Kirkus Reviews
Review:
"Sabuda brings Alice's world to life with breathtaking, three-dimensional images that are incredibly imaginative, intricately detailed, and perfectly executed." Joy Fleishhacker, School Library Journal
Review:
"This will very likely come to be seen as the definitive pop-up version of Alice, but it will also further establish Sabuda as the foremost visionary of the genre." Booklist
Review:
"[Sabuda] has created an object that is the most absorbing book/toy I've played with in a long time. The intelligent paper trickery on each spread is, well, awesome.... Sabuda has surprises on every spread, even given how well we all know Alice. Each scene builds the narrative (and I will not spoil the experience by describing them here), but the final spread is such an engineering tour de force that I can only sympathize with the expert Chinese printers and assemblers who laboriously constructed each copy by hand." Steven Heller, New York Times Book Review

An irresistible pop-up adaptation by paper-engineering genius Robert Sabuda.
