Richard Scarry'S All Around Busytown! Pop-Up : A 3D Popup Book

Rating:
Summary: An unrealistic portrayal of an american busy town
Review: A very uninspiring book. I had a hard time following the storyline and if it wasn't for the popups, I would not have understood the plot at all. Richard Scarry creates a world that is not only busy, but chaotic. I give this book an F.

Summary: Best pop-up book ever!
Review: My 2-1/2 yr old son instantly fell in love with this book, followed shortly thereafter by me and the rest of the family. This is a great book to explore as you can go in and around the buildings, through the doorways, over the bridges and such. Plus, it can be read front-ways and/or back-ways, as there is printing on both sides of the page, giving a little reward for exploring the pages. The story is very cute also and the expressions of the characters are funny and endearing. The pop-ups are quite extravagant, relatively speaking, for a children's book, but not so much as to be overwhelming, and are also quite sturdy. There are also some cool little flaps which display action sequences. There is a train engine that really moves down the track! Richard Scarry rules!!!
