ABC Pop-Up by Courtney McCarthy - ADVISABLE

McCarthy, Courtney Watson ABC Pop-Up. POP-UP BOOK.  Candlewick, 2017.  $30. 9780763690076

NOT for small children – at least not without very careful adult supervision! 

I think McCarthy is aiming to dethrone Sabuda as the top of the pop-up peak.  And this book shows that she is on her way to creating her own pop-up kingdom.  McCarthy has a rich variety of ABC pop-ups, but don’t be fooled – some pages have two or three letters and the letter clues are embossed, so they are not immediately obvious.  So be smart and look carefully.
