The Amazing Spider-Man Pop-Up: Marvel True Believers Retro Collection (Marvel True Believers) Reviews
The problem is that there's really no coherent story to read. This may be satisfying for older Spidey fans, but it doesn't work too well when you're trying to read to your child. Also, the pop-up figures are not sturdy enough to survive the enthusiasm of very small children. Review by Sherry North, Author, Because You Are My Baby. Each page offers information about a particular villain, plus some background on Spider-Man's adventures. He loves the pop-up villains and often requests this book at story time. My preschooler loves Spider-Man, so I got him this exciting pop-up edition.
I'm a Spiderman novice, but I purchased this on sale for under $6 and was completely blown away by the gorgeous, vivid images and the sturdy pop-outs. Although I have never been a comic book fan, I am tempted to read through it before gifting it to my nephew. Very cool. The book is well-made and top quality in terms of attractiveness and durability.
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RJD4PK46K9HE2 This is a brief video that gives you a peek inside this interesting pop-up book.
As with all pop-up books, this is not meant for younger children. The pop-ups are nicely done, especially Doc Ock with all those tentacles. If you collect Spider-Man stuff, this is a good addition.
While is does tell a story, it also gives the reader the information about the characters that is not always apparent in the later cartoon series and movies. It involves the reader in the story. It does pop-up on every page, but there are pullout sections with more information about the characterstheir "back" story.
