A Mini Pop-Up Treat
Published: 2007
Small, 4 X 6 size
Metallic aqua cover
When snowflakes sprinkle (3 silver-tipped flakes)
Welcoming winter (snowman)
A silent hush of snowy white (angel)
Making deep, dark forests bright (antlered reindeer)
Gliding through glistening chill (twirling skater)
Sliding down smooth frosty hills (sled & rider)
Blanketing trees with downy drifts (evergreen with metallic gold star & balls)
Bringing peaceful sounds of nature's gifts. (2 doves unwrapping a package)
This WAS a pop-up treat. It made me remember years ago, when I was an Ozette in Oz Children's Bookstore in Southwest Harbor, Maine, two women who came in one afternoon. They collected pop-up books...had a huge collection....and referred to a big notebook to see whether they could find any new books for their collection. They did. I'd forgotten that completely until I remembered, for some reason, when I was reading this book. Ahh, the human brain.
This book is quite a work of art. And I love the snazy verbs!
