"Trebbi clearly has done his research and is a lover of the paper art formandhellip;This reviewer loved all the examples that were included in the book. The text is dense but The Art of Pop-Up inspires one to pour over the pages to learn about the sheer creativity and breathtaking art that pop-up books really are. Models and templates are included at the end of the book, in case the reader wants to take it a step further and try their hand at this wonderful art form." Seniye Groff in Portland Book Review
