"This is one that I read a while back and still enjoy looking at it, especially now with my new found love of creating paper cards I'm hoping to make a few pop up cards!"
"In an alternate version of my life, I imagine myself as a paper engineer. I would cut clever pop-up books all day, every day, consumed by opposite angles and die-cut flowers springing to life from the page. I would carry thick books full of unexpected scores and folds, peeling them open carefully at opportune moments to inspire wonder and awe in those around me. This book is a solid start. You can take apart the mechanics, as long as you re-attach them, and open the flaps to see the inner workings under the base layer. There's a glossary of pop-up terms, a history of pop-up books, and examples of parallel & angel folds, wheels, and pull tabs. If I weren't in the middle of a cross-country move, I could see these pop-up elements becoming a ruling force in my life."
"I really liked this very kinetic book. Well done pop-up, pop-out, 3-D cards and books enchant me and I've made some simple ones for family and friends. This book does a fabulous job of colourfully, truly illustrating how to do 40 or 50 different folds. Each fold has a working example in addition to detailed instructions. This isn't like origami which looks wonderful, done properly but is the very dickens (for me at least!) to "do" successfully. The folds and how to cut and then successfully paste them into your own 3-d creation are very logical. I really recommend this book for anyone (of late grade school age or older) who'd like to create their own kinetic art. Adults would probably have to help children with the cutting, folding and pasting."
"So. Dang. Nerdy. Yeah, they're "paper engineers", not artists, and they made a real boring nuts-and-bolts pop-up book about how to make pop-up books. It has little pop-up examples that you can take apart to see how they're made."
