One of my favourite things from childhood was a beautiful pop up book of Sleeping Beauty. I can still recall the pages, but the one that stays with me is Sleeping Beauty asleep waiting for the prince. It was a beautiful pop up with lots of pink roses tumbling down above her, over the castle walls, and rambling along the ground. I wish I still had that book.
But we didn't realise that we had to keep everything - that one day it would again be fashionable, or is it just that we get a little nostalgic? Does it mean I don't throw out all my clothes that are too small?? Not that I think I will every fit into them ever again (big sigh) - no matter how hard we try, we will never again have our girlish figures of our youth (another big sigh). Now I'm depressing myself........ Let's look at the pretty picture and cheer up.

I love pop up books too! They're so magical. My favourite was a version of Beauty and the Beast that you could open fully and join the two covers together. The detail was amazing.
anything pop up is good..
