5.0 out of 5 stars Delight Before Christmas, 23 Dec 2004
By A Customer
I have a three-year old daughter, and wanted to purchase "the night before christmas" to read to her before bedtime this Christmas Eve.

I have to say, when first noticing the book on Amazon I was initially put-off by the cost. There are cheaper versions of this story available, but I liked the idea of a pop-up book as I thought my daughter would appreciate it all the more.

Having received the book, I cannot believe the level of detail that it contains. I was expecting (at best) your usual two-dimensional pop-ups (3-dimensional if I was lucky) that you would normally see. Instead each individual pop-up is a marvel of cardboard engineering (I kid you not!). I've read the book myself three times already just to take in all the work and attention to detail.

My daughter has not yet seen the book as I am saving it for Christmas Eve, but if you are looking for this book in a format that your children (and you) will delight in year after year, then part with the cash........you won't regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Too good for kids, 7 Oct 2004

No, only kidding, this is of course a super book for your kids and you. I recently bought my first Robert Sabuda book, the 'The 12 Days of Christmas' (ISBN 0689808658) and it is an amazing pop-up creation. What really pleased me was the half page flap on each right-hand page, so as well as a pop-up on each spread there is another to discover underneath this flap, twelve pop-ups in all.

The 'Night Before Christmas' book is even more dazzling and I bet it pushes to the limit what is possible with a mass-market pop-up book. The format is the same as '12 Days' (though there is no flap on the sixth spread) but it is more creative, just wait till you open spread three and eight reindeer don't just pop up they jump towards you at the same time, spread five has Santa popping up and above the top of the book. The last spread is the most ambitious, a little village arises, with six cottages and background clouds, pull a tab and Santa (printed on clear plastic) travels across a snowy gap in the clouds. The book is pri
