Delicate and yet sturdy, pretty and still mechanically inclined...
... I'm talking about Cinderella, the pop-up book by Matthew Reinhart.
The reins are silver ribbon and the wings on the fairy godmother are thin, clear, painted plastic. The carriage resembles a pumpkin, but your eye can't help but go to the rat peeking through the window in the corner packet. When it's opened, the pesky beast turns into a jolly coachman and is swiftly followed with another page turn and lizards become footmen.
That is a brief explanation of just one page this book. Both Reinhart and Sabuda are known to offer a cornucopia of paper engineering and story details that entertains with every page in each of their books - they are a must have for every pop-up lover.
