Wind in the Willows Pop-up Book Babette Cole First Edition Collectable Children's Classics

Kitty's Notes:

Most parents want their children to grow up to have the opportunity to read the greatest children's classic books.

This fun pop-up version of Kenneth Grahame's classic children's novel is a great intro to the world of children's books. Your young child won't fail to be entranced by the amusing pop-ups and little windows to open that give more depth to this simplified, nibble sized version of the wonderful old children's book.

See the animals in the wild wood, see Mr Toad escape from Prison and then watch as his car plunges into the river.

The paper engineering of the pop-ups by James Roger Diaz and Keith Mosely is so clever. And Babettes' humour filled illustrations completely charming.

There was the noise of a bolt shot back and the door opened a few inches enough to show a snout and a pair of sleepy blinking eyes.
'O Badger', cried the Rat, 'Let us in, please. It's me, Rat, and my friend Mole, and we've lost our way in the snow..."
