I've never made pop-ups before, and I found this book to have clear instructions and step by step photographs. With a combination of specific projects and pictures illustrating variations on specific techniques, this book will keep me busy for awhile. This is not a children's book, although it is probably accessible to middles school students and above (some portions are quite advanced however). See Joan Irvine's books for popup projects and instructions specifically written for children.

A very good beginners book on basic pop-up construction. Simple diagrams and clear photographs. ( )

This is a book I refer to again and again in my papercraft projects. My husband sourced this for me as a birthday gift and it is the BEST book on pop-up contstruction I have ever seen. ( )
