America's National Parks

• Used Book in Good Condition

<i>America's National Parks: A Pop-Up Book</i> is a coast to coast journey featuring 18 of our most visited national parks, with six as stunning, double-page pop-ups: Everglades, Great Smoky Mountains, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Glacier, and Yosemite national parks. See two bear cubs scrambling up a tree to safety, an alligator charging its prey, a dory boat crashing through the rapids of the Colorado River, a Red Jammer tour bus coming out of a mountain tunnel, Old Faithful Geyser erupting 13 inches above the page, and a mother Grizzly rising up to defend her cubs. Fascinating park action springs to life in cleverly designed mini-booklet pops. The beauty of our national parks comes to life in these pages. You and your family will be inspired to visit our national parks. <p>Pop-up paper engineering is created by Bruce Foster, designer of 40 pop-up books including the amazing Harry Potter pop-up. <p>The pop-up illustrations by Dave Ember are in the style of the WPA 1930s posters. Thirteen of these historic posters are faithfully reproduced in the book, courtesy of the Library of Congress. <p>Gold Medal Winner: Children's Picture Book (All Ages) by the Independent Publisher Book Awards (2013).
