Nature Pop-Up Series

Introduction

Working with French publisher Martiniere jeunesse, pop-up engineers Olivier Charbonnel and Bernard Duisit have created a mesmerizing series of nature-themed pop-up books that boldly bring the wonders of our world to life.

Each of the books include around 20 pages of interesting information that includes history, science and mythology, with 5 pop-up spreads that invite readers to explore dynamic three-dimensional landscapes. The books are usually first published in French, then translated into English and Spanish, with some volumes also available in Italian, Dutch and other (primarily European) languages. 

I highly recommend this series for budding scientists, and they are a delightful interactive way to learn about and celebrate nature.
