This would be a lot more enjoyable if the colours were a bit more restrained. Vibrant red lines on blue would be hard to follow even if they weren't mazes that pop up to unheard-of heights and continue from side to side of fold-over flaps. In any colour, these are extremely challenging mazes!

Incredible three-dimensional illustrations of the human body. Many layered. Used in science lessons and displays for at least thirty years, and still holding up beautifully.

Precisely detailed pop-up illustrations, complete with movable parts, demonstrate the anatomy, workings, mechanisms, and interrelationships between internal structures and systems of the human body

12/27/20 Amazon price $ 28.79. Newer editions available.

This is another engaging and exciting pop up by book by David Pelham. Sam is going on a boating adventure and it appears his sister has tampered with his meal! Young children cannot get enough of these pop up books, I remember them from my childhood and surely your child will remember them also!

David Pelham brings Sam back for another round of gross pop up fun. Sam and his sister are after a burger thief and every page brings new rhymes and a fun surprise! If you enjoyed "Sam's Sandwich" and are looking for a new pop up to enjoy, "Sam's Hamburger" is where it is at!
