![]() Rating: - Excellent introduction for beginnersI was astounded with the simplicity of the book in teaching three dimensional popups and the multiple hands-on examples that it provided. I loved it! Rating: - Pop-up mysteries revealedPop-up books and cards delight children and adults with their unique and clever designs, but how are these intricate pictures created? If you've ever wanted to make one yourself, The Pocket Paper Engineer will show you how. This set of two volumes focuses on basic pop-up forms, platforms and props in a fully hands-on manner.

It presents an example, then you can tear out a card with the pattern for that example, and when you finish, it has a pocket on the next page where you can store the card you just cut. Also, if you don't like cutting up your book, there is an order form for replacement cards. It's nice to see form follow function!!
