 faires pop up December 20, 2008
i love these popups !! thank you matthew reinhart.. i buy for the grandchildren and then we share them with the pre school they attend ... many get pleasure from the imaginative skill of the author
AMAZING December 9, 2008
This book exceeded my expectations. I got it as a gift for my 10 year old niece and was tempted to keep it. The pop-ups are gorgeous, the text is interesting, and the design is perfect (each page is on a different type of fairy). I would not get this book for a child under 8 or for people who are heavy handed with thier books. It takes a delicate hand to manipulate some of the pop ups and to re-close them properly.

 Sabuda magic August 21, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Robert Sabuda is a genius, no doubt about it. In this book there are dimensional fairies peeking from foliage, brownies hiding in corners, and trolls waiting to create trouble for passers-by. Some figures "magically" transform from one thing to another, just as we might imagine them to do in fairy tales. I give it only four stars because the engineering falls just a little short of the "wow" factor, and the text is somewhat depressing. Nonetheless, this and the Limited Edition version will certainly remain in my collection to be enjoyed for years to come.
another great one August 11, 2008
I'll admit I've become a little jaded regarding Sabuda's books. How can he possibly top some of the earlier ones? This one doesn't disappoint though.
