Stunning Pop Up Book

I was very pleased with the construction of this pop up book. This isn't your ordinary pop up book though. The height at which the characters jump off the pages at you is amazing. The characters are wonderfully illustrated and the colors are great too. The story has a repeating line, which makes it great for young readers to follow. My niece is three and she read it 12 times the first night.

Great Pop Up About Pirates

My two-year old loves this book! Great pop-ups and story. If your child is into pirates, or not, get this book. My toddler loves reading this over and over again.

Great Children's Book

My children enjoyed reading this book and looking at the beautiful illustrations. Very talented illustrator!! Highly recommend this book!

An eye-popping and hilarious pop-up book

I've had this book at home now for a couple of weeks and it gets rave reviews from everyone in the family. Kids will be enthralled by the artwork and the clever storyline told in rhythmic fashion will leave them in stitches. And I should add it's really quite amusing for adults as well. The pop-ups are so jaw-droppingly elaborate and detailed I'm amazed every time I flip through the pages. Highly recommended!

Wonderful book!

Both my 7 year old daughter and 4 year old son love this book. It is now a regular feature in our nighttime reading routine! The pop-up illustrations are great. Our kids love the story as well - now any mention of "stinky toes" has them giggling!
