Color Surprises: A Pop-up Book Specifications
If only words could describe Chuck Murphy's Color Surprises as well as his gasp-inducing pop-ups manage to capture the essence of each color of the rainbow. Each page of this little wonder--one of the best, most artistic pop-up books we've ever seen--features a single, solid-colored square. With a quick pull or gentle push, however, one of nature's creatures slithers, flies, or bounces out of the square and (almost) off the page. Red is a gracefully unfolding starfish, and blue is a pleasantly popping parrot. We'd love to give the rest away, but half the pleasure of this fine book is in the discovery. A great gift for any adult on your list, but kids who like animals (meaning all kids) will love it, too. (Ages 3 to 103)
Color Surprises: A Pop-up Book CustomerReview
This was the first Chuck Murphy book I purchased for my daughter when she was about 6 months old, and since then we haven't been able to get enough of Chuck Murphy. The bright colors, clever designs, easy-to-lift flaps, and gorgeous pop-up surprises captivate my daughter. We can read it over and over and over again, my daughter never gets tired of it. She also loves the "One to Ten Pop-Up Surprises" book, equally delightful. "Black Cat, White Cat: A Book of Opposites" is our next favorite. "Bow-Wow: A Pop-Up Book of Shapes" holds her attention okay but does not fascinate her quite as much--it may be more interesting for her when she gets older and we can talk about the shapes (she's 10 months old now). Every single one of the books in this series is beautifully, thoughtfully designed and a joy to read with my daughter.
For anyone who complains that the pop-ups are too delicate...ummm, what do you expect from a pop-up book made of paper--for it to be childproof? Read along with your kid, and don't get upset when he or she gets a little overeager and tears a page--just reinforce with a little Scotch tape. Considering the amazing paper engineering in these books with delicate and tempting parts, I've been quite lucky that within months of regular reading, my daughter only tore two easily repaired spots (but she is rather careful with books for someone so young).
It kills me that these books are out of print and it's so hard to get copies in good condition. Please bring this author's books back in stock--I would buy up back-up copies for my daughter as well as gifts for friends with newborns! We love you in our household, Chuck Murphy! Thank you for delighting my daughter.
