Publishers Weekly

Tullet channels the joie de vivre of Press Here! in this wordless (and enormous) "book," which takes interactivity to another level entirely. Cardboard, accordion-style pages--splattered and slathered with paint--feature die-cut holes, slots, and punch-out shapes. The latter can be placed into the various gaps, letting readers create an almost infinitely changeable piece of sculpture art large enough to do double duty as a modernist fort. "Experiment and make your sculpture unique by adding pieces of card, paper or other things you can find that will fit," suggests the book's cardboard case. One never knows what to expect from this genre-bending series, and this addition is no exception. Ages 5-8. (Sept.)

Review quotes

"There's more than one way to get lost in a book. This paper engineering marvel lets kids push out perforated paper shapes to construct a three‐dimensional artwork that you won't mind keeping on display." - Time Out

Hervé Tullet

Hervé Tullet was born in 1958. After studying Fine Art, he worked as an Art Director before joining the advertising industry. In 1994 he published his first book for children and has since become one of the world's most innovative book makers. Known in France as "The Prince of pre-school books", Tullet takes the concept of reading to a new level, teaching young minds to think imaginatively, independently and creatively. He is the father of two boys and a girl, who never fail to inspire him.
