Review: Exquisite book - remarkable! - This book is truly a wonderful work of art! My 5yr old daughter is autistic and currently obsessed with Leonardo Da Vinci, and particularly his machines. She's spent 2 separate hours today, studying this book, and working out how all the parts move. We all know Da Vinci was a genius, but I also think this author is, as his pop up illustrations are the best I've seen, most with moving parts which add another layer of interest. They are intricate, and delicate, so wouldn't stand up to grabbing children, but luckily my daughter is extremely careful, and I'm confident she can handle this book on her own. Review: So good - So good

Beautifully presented and exquisitely made
This is a beautiful book that is, in my opinion far too nice for a younger child as the 'pop up' drawings are exquisite but easily damaged. One has to really turn the pages with care but the resulting display is amazing in detail and presentation. I actually bought this book for myself after seeing one that was bought for my grandson. The world that is ~Leonardo da Vinci's mind is superb and brought to life within the pages of this book. Good Value and Recommended

Fantastic pop up book
I saw the designer on Dragons Den, and purchased the book. Really good, though some of the text is difficult to read.

This is an amazing book. The third U have purchased.
This book is perfect for enquiring. childrens minds and great for adults who appreciate the brilliance of the inventions. Also the people who put the whole thing together must also be geniouses.

It's a very beautiful book, with amazing pop-ups. Just one remark: near the spine on the back and front cover on each side, there is a fragile narrow band of paper attached to the spine, this can tear easily. This should be reinforced.
