Little Simon, 2000. 1st Edition 12th Printing. Hardcover. As New/No Jacket Issued. Robert Sabuda. CONDITION: LIKE NEW, UNREAD 2000+ Little Simon hardcover (pictorial boards - no DJ issued), first edition, 12th printing. There is a small side-packet pop-up that appears it could be missing something small, but I can't figure out what it might be (from the publishing process). Color illustrations and paper engineering by the great Robert Sabuda. CONTENT: 7 2-page large pop-ups with the traditional Sabuda side-opening pockets of smaller pop-ups. The Emerald City is simply spectacular. Also enclosed are 3-D glasses. There are "sparkling touches of colored foil" on each pop-up. Children (well, all of us) will love and marvel at this Sabuda creation. Suggestion: Pop-ups are incredibly delicate so when you open them for the first time, please go slowly and gently. Questions welcome & answered.
