Customer Reviews

incredible and appealing to babies and up

My son has loved these since he was about 8 mo, and now he is a pre-schooler. Well, as with all pop-ups, I always supervise, but this series has fairly simple engineering, so an over enthusisastic tug or rip is fairly easy to cellotape. Our four books have lots of tape, but they still work after three years of frequent use. The pop-ups and presentation are so appealing, you will never regret this purchase. An absolute classic for your childs library.

Mind Ticklers for Children as Well as Adults

Chuck Murphy's creative way to stimulate and educate a child. The book consists of 10 colorful pop-ups which encourage children to ask questions about the things they are seeing in the pop-ups as well as to count. Our two young boys, ages 2 and 4, take these books everywhere with them. During long automobile voyages or flights each book keeps the child's mind entertained for at least 30 minutes but not more than 1 hour and 20 minutes during any given trip. We have already purchased the above book three times since it has sustained a lot of wear and tear from the mountains to the beaches. Chuck Murphy's books are tops with our kids.

A CLEVER COUNTING BOOK WITH AN EYEFUL OF COLORFUL SURPRISES!

ONE TO TEN, POP-UP SURPRISES! you must see to believe. A gift to my daughter, I thought it was going to be just another boring number book, but I was wrong--this is SPECTACULAR! I won't give away the surprises inside, but just to let you know, they are top-knotch, vivid graphics of objects that you and your child will LOVE! The artist should have won an award for the illustrations/graphic design of this book! And as a bonus, this book is small and easily portable to Grandmother's house.I can not remember coming across another number book of this quality nor could I even imagine it! Perfect for young children past the "I like ripping books better than looking at/reading them stage." If this book doesn't encourage counting--NOTHING WILL! ONE TO TEN POP UP SURPRISES! might possibly be a key for 'soaring' into math, you never can tell. In any case, it should have a guarantee that it will make counting fun, or your money back! (No one would want their money back!)Books should be FUN and this one IS! My highest rating.Soaring Heart

One of the best books I have ever seen!

This is such a wonderful book for kids of all ages. I bought it for my 10 month old because she likes pop-ups and she is interested in numbers. The book looks so boring when you first open it--big black and white numbers. But then you open it to a wonderful surprise on every page. The book is just so creative and fantastic. I think Mr. Murphy makes the best pop-up books I have ever seen! I would seriously buy all of his books if you don't have them already!

A true work of art.

This book was given to my daughter for her second birthday. The first time we sat down to read it, I was exhausted from the birthday party, not really in the mood for yet another pop-up book, and when we popped up the first one, I was amazed. This book is brain candy for any age. It is exhilarating, exciting, awe-inspiring and just plain fun. My only regret is that this thing of absolute beauty isn't a little sturdier, we've had several pop-up casualties at the excited hands of my toddler. If you don't have kids, get this one anyway -- for you!
