Very interesting! We gave your Star Wars book to our grandchildren a few years ago for Christmas, I'm going to pass on this video to their mom so she can share it with them. I'm always trying to inspire them to let out their inner artist. :)

As a bored and lonely 10 yo I spent a whole day creating a little cowboy and Indian village from paper scraps etc . (Prompted by the fact that my neighbours had slaughtered chickens and plucked the feathers which the wind blew right to our front door so I had a plethora of feathers . ) hmm . Anyway , I was so stoked and proud of my works . Even an Indian chief with a feather head dress. I had a little sister like yours too but she was not the problem this time . Getting to tea time and my mother comes in and I am showing her all I had done. Ok come and eat. After tea I go to play with my creation and , yep my mother had screwed it all up and binned it . Now had food scraps on top of it . Am only now starting to play with paper again . Love you stuff

I have loved pop up books since my earliest memory of books ... perhaps I really make pop up books for children using my art.

[@LisaSimpson2]

Incredible pop-up books! I've always thought there's something so magical about pop-up books. I had one as a kid and I absolutely loved it! Thanks for the talk explaining the craft. I tragically never even knew about these books until I watched this. Afterwards I looked up all of them and discovered a whole collection of incredible and genius pop-up books which I now MUST have lol thanks! Really want the Game of Thrones one! I'm going to get that one but love them all so much. It's going to be pretty difficult to choose!

I bought the frozen book today for my 3 year old and it’s magical! We love it! It’s a beautiful book and I can’t believe how the pop ups are reversible. Brilliant work.

For no-nonsense learning the basics, I really like "the pop-up channel": kzbin.info/door/x2M2bGHtXBszG6tuR_NIbQ. I ended up coming back later to Matthew's work and his own channel for some great explanations of more advanced mechanisms: kzbin.info/aero/PL1qXogDdvai8m_1_cgOXEzF9WhOxFaJ7p. Hope that helps
