Pop-Up Jungle by Ingela Arrhenius – OPTIONAL

Pop-Up Jungle by IngelaArrhenius. POP-UP BOOK. Candlewick, 2019. $12.  9781536205510

BUYING ADVISORY: PRE-K –OPTIONAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

This book starts readers out on a jungle cruise and takes them through simple sights of the jungle. Readers see a variety of pop-up sights such as a tree frog, a flower, an elephant, and even a waterfall. The illustrations are simple and bold.

This is a fun pop-up that any young readers would love. The pop-ups seem fairly simple and sturdy, so they might hold up better than the average pop-up. Also the book is small, about the size of sandwich, so young hands can easily hold the book as well. That being said, a pop-up as a library book has a short life span, but it might be fun for a non-check out item, like an exploration table about the jungles.
