Last time I unboxed the latest Traditional Chinese edition published in 2023.The Little Prince Pop-up BookThis time, let's revisit the classic English pop-up book in the "Little Prince" series: *The Little Prince Deluxe Pop-Up Book*! 🌝
What makes "Deluxe" in the book title luxurious?
In addition to the uncut text (which was the only complete pop-up book at the time of publication), the illustrations also use the original classic artwork.
The paper art designs were primarily handled and directed by Gérard Lo Monaco and Bernard Duisit, and are quite ingenious.
What impressed me most were several 3D scenes and mechanisms that incorporated rotating motion (the planet, the vain man, and the Little Prince and the fox)—very dynamic! And the stars that flashed as the pages turned when the book said goodbye to the Little Prince at the end were a delightful surprise. 🌟
Although the presentation of the three-dimensional mechanism is not as good as in "The Little Prince Pop-up BookWhile visually stunning (with its various spheres and glass roses), this classic pop-up book's interplay of movable mechanisms and storytelling is truly ingenious (you'll be amazed: who knew such a design could exist!). It's a timeless masterpiece worthy of collection! 🚀
