3.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful artwork just doesn't stand up on it's own, July 27 2008

This review is from: The Chronicles Of Narnia Pop-Up: Based on the Books by C. S. Lewis (Hardcover)
Although the artwork lives up to Sabuda's previous work, I have to say I'm quite disappointed. I have purchased both his Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz pop-up books, and not only were they incredible works of art and engineering, but they were as much about the story as they were about art. Each and every page included a miniature pop-up pamphlet, each telling a different part of those classic stories we all know and love. I assumed Narnia would follow a similar format. Unfortunately, each page includes only one large pop-up with no story to match. Granted, one pop-up book couldn't possibly tell the story of C.S. Lewis' entire Narnia series - so maybe it should never have been attempted. Focusing on one story of the series, such as the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, would have been a much better move. Maybe this wasn't possible due to copyright or related issues, but this pop-up just didn't stand up to my expectations.

This review is from: The Chronicles Of Narnia Pop-Up: Based on the Books by C. S. Lewis (Hardcover)
Calling this a "14 page book" is an injustice. It really isn't a 14 page book, it is a "Seven Wonders of the Narnia World". Think of it this way - 14 pages - each 2 page spread represents one of the 7 Narnia books.

Each "book" pops out at you in an amazing representation. If you've read the Narnia books, you say "ohh - yes.". If you haven't read the books, well, I hope they say "this is something you need to read".

It is somewhat delicate - don't let the youngest fingers turn the pages - do it for them. But it is indeed a beautiful engineering/art concept.

The engineering is "Robert Sabuda" for sure, but the artwork is "Matthew Armstrong". A former game designer/artist, he illustrated the children's Christmas book, The Blacksmith's Gift, mentored on An Orphan's Promise, and from these moved to illustrating Narnia books. Yay, Matthew!

Oh, and finally, I just love the "bonus" pop-ups - some of the seven pages have an extra pullout - which "pops up" another little scene! Really cool.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique, Nov 28 2007

This review is from: The Chronicles Of Narnia Pop-Up: Based on the Books by C. S. Lewis (Hardcover)
I have many of Sabuda's popup books. They are all so beautiful. This one is unique and I think his best. The pop up of the horse is hard to believe. I would not have thought that it was possible to create a pop of an animal such as a horse and capture all its majestic beauty. The lion on the first page is - don't know if I should call an art masterpiece or an engineering masterpiece. It is eye-popping. Don't open it too close to your face, it does pop out. Bigger than anything I have this complicated. This is a collector book!

Now with Kindle and all that, maybe there will be no books around in 50 years hence, so please buy this book as specimen of when paper was (is) king.
