Book Description
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.

From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 6-Sabuda brings Alice's world to life with breathtaking, three-dimensional images that are incredibly imaginative, intricately detailed, and perfectly executed. Carroll's text has been significantly abridged, and although some scenes are a bit choppy, the quickly paced narrative retains the flavor of the original. Sabuda's illustrations pay homage to John Tenniel's artwork, while providing a fresh look at the story and offering details that add greatly to the reading experience. The events unfold in six glorious spreads, each featuring a large pop-up and a narrow booklet that opens into several pages containing the text as well as additional pop-ups. The first scene depicts Alice and her sister on the riverbank, and the faces of several Wonderland characters are camouflaged among the background trees. A pull-up panel provides a "Victorian peep show" view of Alice falling down the rabbit hole. Throughout, shiny foils highlight items such as pots and pans, and felt adds textured detail to the Cheshire Cat and other fuzzy animals. A movable inset transforms the face of the Duchess's offspring from a baby's to a pig's. As a page is turned, a gardener raises his paintbrush and a piece of cellophane changes a white rose to red. In the final spread, a frightened Alice waves her arms beneath a delicate arch of cards. In addition to pulling off feats of paper engineering, the artist also manages to create compositions that provide an eye-pleasing balance of colors, shapes, and action. Much too delicate to circulate, libraries may still want to purchase this book for displays and just for showing off.

1. Wonderful!, March 31, 2005
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　By P. R. Foltz "Thrasymacus" (Doylestown, PA USA)

My 2 kids are transfixed by this pop-up book. The vibrant colors and imaginative pop-ups are a wonder. We especially like the sequence that shows Alice falling down the rabbit hole.

Be careful buying this for younger kids. My 3-year old was drawn to the pop-ups like a moth to the flame, and he damaged a few of them.
This is a full version of the book - which is wonderful - since the small fold out sections with text also contain miniature pop-ups.


2. A rather complicated collector's item, kind of saps some of the fun out of Alice., December 22, 2005
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　By Slatternly Jones "Authority on six year old boys" (Rhode Island)

This book is a great accomplishment. But...the pop up book of Alice I fell in love with as a child was so much simpler and so much more fun. The one I grew up with was mostly comprised of inventive pull-tabs: pull the tab and the Cheshire cat disappears, bit by bit, leaving only his smile; pull the tab and the roses change from white to red and back again; pull the tab and Alice grows out of the house; pull the tab and Alice's bird plays croquet ; pull the tab and the caterpillar disappears. So much more fun than this encyclopedic collectors item. So buy this one, by all means, but publishers...please pub out a thoughtful abridged version that is durable and fun for kids without being so elaborate and expensive. that parents are scared to let them play with it.

1.Pop-up magic, May 12, 2007
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　By Amanda (Chicago)

I have always loved the story of "Alice" and I rave over the pop-up illustrations of Sabuda. This book however fell short. The story was poorly edited and the artwork was below par for Sebuda. If you really want a fun Sebuda book "The Wizard of OZ," is terrific. Your children will have you reading over and over.

2.These books are fabulous!, February 18, 2007
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　By A. Woodson "Book Mom" (Los Angeles)

I bought both Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz- Pop-ups for my four year old son. Both he and I (hubby too) love them. They are very special, the pop-ups are gorgeous and elaborate. I plan to make these books very special birthday presents for my friend's kids.

Highly recommended!
