Product Overview
In this delightful pop-up book, a wide variety of animals with large open mouths play a game of 'telephone' and we watch a message that starts as I thought I saw a saucer on the roof last night morph into There's a big blue monster on the roof with enormous sharp fangs and five webbed feet ! Jan Pienkowski (b. 1939), famous for his wonderfully illustrated childrens' pop-up books, is a Polish-born British author of children's books-as illustrator, as writer, and as designer of movable books. He has also designed for the theatre. For his contribution as a children's illustrator he was U.K. nominee in 1982 and again in 2008 for the biennial, international Hans Christian Andersen Award, the highest recognition available to creators of children's books.
