ONE OF THE MOST DELIGHTFUL AND INNOVATIVE POP-UP BOOKS I HAVE EVER SEEN.—Robert Sabuda

From the lenticular cover that changes with the angle of your hands, all the way to the Z, ABC3D is as much a work of art as it is a pop-up book. Each of the 26 dimensional letters move and change before your eyes. C turns into D with a snap. M stands at attention. X becomes Y with a flick of the wrist. And then there’s U… Boldly conceived and brilliantly executed with a striking black, red, and white palette, this is a book that readers and art lovers of all ages will treasure for years to come.

MARION BATAILLE is graphic and book designer who has never before been published in this country. She lives in Paris. This is just a hand-made mock-up of the actual book which publishes in Oct. 2008. We couldn’t be more excited about it.

Also for those asking that’s the incredible 30′s trio The Boswell Sisters singing “Roll On”

Rather than hire a professional illustrator for this story(an autobiography according to my sister), I did the drawings myself. I ‘ve posted the book in it’s entirety in hopes of spreading the ‘good word’ –acknowledge setbacks, but do not dwell on them, always keep in mind the outcome you would like & ‘try, try again’! However, as I am a self-published single mother, anyone w/ the means to purchase their own copy would delight me to no end!

(I have another book in the works so, stay tuned!)
