Product Description

Product Description

Explore the world of the Nutcracker through five spectacular pop-up scenes. Children can open the children's pop-up presents, watch the midnight battle between the mice and the toy soldiers (with the tallest pop-up Christmas tree you've ever seen) then join Clara on her sleigh ride to the Land of Sweets. Sue Scullard's astonishingly detailed illustration, combined with Nick Denchfield's miraculous pop-up scenes, make this the most magical NUTCRACKER ever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Magical, 13 Jan 2004
By M. Winter "doihavetohaveone" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this for my daughter for Christmas and it has become her favourite. At 14 months old she is not yet interested in the storyline however she turns the pages (with supervision) back and forth over and over without tiring of it. This book also has lift up flaps so, even though there are only five basic scenes, there is much detail making it worthwile. The best and most magical Christmas themed children's book I've come across so far.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Nutcracker: A Magical Pop-up Adventure, 25 Oct 2007
By S. R. Harrison (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is as the description says a magical book. I bought this for my daughter as we are due to go to the Nutcracker ballet and this is my favourite book, as well as my 3 year old daughter - it really is beautiful and I would highly recommend it - very good value for money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect!, 21 Feb 2009
This book is absolutely amazing. It really captures the essence of the Nutcracker and what you would expect to see if you went to see the ballet. The picture pop ups are spectacular in design and intricate in detail, there is just so much to look at on every page. The pop ups really draw you into the story, so that this book becomes more than an example of technical brilliance: it is a story book that you will go back to time and time again.

My girls have wanted this read to them virtually every night for the first three weeks after Christmas. A beautifully presented book with great pop ups.

I can't recommend this book enough. I used to love pop-up books as a child, but this is far better than any I can remember having or seeing. Read more
