In this case, each letter of the alphabet has a door and inside is the character that goes with that letter. When the door is opened, the character pops up. The outside of the doors give very broad clues about what is inside. For example, the door for the letter P looks like wood. The character is Pinocchio. I think only older children may pick up on this. Otherwise, there is no text but I can see children spending hours opening these doors to see their favorite characters pop up. ( )An amazing pop-up book and I bought this one off the bargain rack. Both of my boys have spent hours looking at this one by themselves. Each letter has it's own "card" that you open up to reveal a character whose name starts with the appropriate letter of the alphabet. My kids don't normally enjoy ABC books, but this one is an exception. no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0786831324, Hardcover)In the gorgeous, interactive ABC Disney: An Alphabet Pop-Up, A is for Ariel, B is for Bambi, and C is for Cinderella. And who better than Robert Sabuda to pull off this ambitious tribute to Disney animation? A veritable king in the world of pop-up books, he has never missed a new Disney animated feature film release. "Walt Disney films were magic to me and my siblings when we were kids," says Sabuda. "The films had stories, real stories that were completely believable. To the young artist growing inside of me they were visually lyrical and achingly beautiful." Creator of the holiday pop-up favorites A Christmas Alphabet, The Twelve Days of Christmas, and Cookie Count, Sabuda infuses life and motion into each beloved character with his ever elegant, truly astounding paper tricks. A sequence of colorful, lift-up squares, each marked with a letter from A to Z, cleverly conceals the spring-loaded Disney crew: Hercules flexes mightily when you lift the H square, Iago flaps his wings, Jiminy Cricket tips his hat cheerily, and Kaa the python slithers beneath the K. Disney fans young and old will revel in this magnificent tribute to the characters loved the world round and Sabuda fans will welcome another classic from the pop-up master.
