Encyclopedia Prehistorica Dinosaurs: The Definitive Pop-Up
From renowned pop-up masters Robert Sabuda and Matthew Reinhart comes an awe-inspiring tribute to the world's most beloved extinct animals and their 180-million-year reign on our planet.
Open this book and a massive T. REX springs out, flashing a startling jawful of jagged teeth. Turn the next spread and a ravishing raptor unfurls and appears to fly off the edge of the page. Inside the amazing ENCYCLOPEDIA PREHISTORICA: DINOSAURS are "shield bearers" in full-body armor, creatures with frilly headgear, and weighty, long-necked giants. There are even amusing tidbits on the history of paleontology itself ? like a pop-up version of a Victorian New Year's dinner in the belly of a dinosaur model, or a pair of scientists locked in a literal tug-of-war over bones.
Full of fascinating facts and lighthearted good humor, this breathtaking book includes fascinating, up-to-the-minute information about popular dinosaurs as well as many lesser-known varieties. With each of six spreads featuring one spectacular, large pop-up as well as booklets of smaller pop-ups and text, ENCYCLOPEDIA PREHISTORICA: DINOSAURS is a magnificent display of paper engineering and creativity ? an astonishing book that will be read, admired, and treasured forever.

Encyclopedia Prehistorica Dinosaurs: The Definitive Pop-Up Reviews
Totally awesome. And, very reasonably priced. This has to be the best pop-up book I have ever seen.
I loved this book. I loved it and it was a really good buy. It is entertaining to read as well as beautiful to look at. My students are going to love it.
He also practices his English with the delightful pop-ups. Enjoyed greatly by a 10 year old Japanese boy who lives in Chiba, Japan.
Bought this book for my 5 year old granddaughter who is really into Dinosaurs. Overall, a great purchase and I would highly recommend it. She was thrilled with it. Since opening it, she wants to look at it every day. It's been 2 weeks now and she is still enjoying it. At first glance, you may not notice all the "small pockets" on each page which also pop-up to reveal even more 3D pictures.
I underestimated his reaction. He was simply thrilled and he especially liked the several smaller pop-ups located in each page's corners. In selecting this book for a young boy who simply adores anything dinosaur, I felt it was something he would really like. It was defintiely a winner as far as he was concerned.
