Encyclopedia Prehistorica Sharks and Other Sea Monsters: The ultimate pop-up guide to massive ocean creatures, packed with facts – the perfect gift for children 5+

I originally came across the Dinosaur pop-up book and bought it for my son. He absolutely loved it as I do. The books are incredibly intricate and relatively sturdy. The artwork is astonishing and the way the images fold out to create complex 3d pictures is magical. How these books are designed from the original conception to the final product, I have no idea but the effect is amazing. There are usually four main pages that contain the main image that folds out and immediately takes your attention. Thee are also three or four sub-pages or mini books on each page that fold out, in turn, providing even more 3d pictures. The additional writing produces a high level of detail and content to produce a richly satisfying book that both I and my son constantly revisit. They also make perfect presents with a difference! I was so impressed that I have been collecting all the pop-up books by Robert Sabuda.

This book has so much detail its pretty remarkable, the pop up parts of the book are fantastic like the dinosaur one and are so detailed its really captured the kids imagination and become a bit of a page turner. This and the dinosaur book have become their go to books when they come home simply because of the content. That being said, its pretty complex as well and some of the technical language probably could have been toned down to make it a bit more user friendly to kids. We often read it together and they really enjoy it. I cant really praise this book enough for the quality and contents thats in it. Perfect for any young kid who loves dinosaurs.

A ‘feast for the eyes’ ! A beautifully presented book with magnificent pop-up representations of the subjects. So lovely have bought another to gift to our grandson’s primary school class.

Fantastic book for my granddaughter, she loves it

Great book!

This book is worth every pound. It very well constructed and beautifully illustrated. The pop ups are amazing and vivid. The information is well presented and will hold a child’s interest.

These books are SO worth the money!! I was so amazed when they came by not only the quality and intricacy of the pop ups but also the number of pop up things there are in them! There are little booklets on each page and there and pop ups on each page of those to! You do have to be careful with them because they can break but I feel like that can happen with any pop up. But they are made of sturdy cardboard. Wish I could have kept these for myself!

It's a lovely ppp up book love it 😀
