The
Global Garden
Pop-up book
An Eden Project book by Kate Petty & Jennie
Maizels, paper engineering by Corina Fletcher.
Do you know how your
jeans grew? Or your bicycle tyres? What does a
chocolate tree look like? Where does sugar come
from? What makes a garden grow? Meat, fish and
dairy products come from animals, but what do
animals eat?
Turn the wheel, lift
the flaps and pull the tabs to discover the life
of the plants we can't do without.
This superb hands-on
book features beautifully designed paper engineering
that will engage young minds over and over again
in a journey of discovery. Kids want to know about
the world around them and they'll love the surprises
in this book. Parents will admire the respect
for nature that it engenders, and they won't want
to stop playing with it either!
