| Written and paper engineered by Kyle Olmon and illustrated by Tracy Sabin, "Castle!" is an in-depth look at what life was like in the middle ages.
|
This Sneak Peek shows the "white dummy" stage when all the pop-ups are in the prototype stage. The first spread of "Castle" has a huge castle that literally leaps off the page!
|
"Sabuda & Reinhart Presents" will be a series of non-fiction pop-up books that educators for all backgrounds will be able to use the classroom. This enormous pop-up of everyone who lives and works in the castle certainly fits the bill!

 |
| There are also many pull-tabs in the book. This unique pop-up opens to display a full jousting scene, but when the tab is pulled the riders advance towards each other and one is knocked off his horse.
|
After Kyle Olmon paper engineers the pop-up, illustrator Tracy Sabin steps in, creating both the black and white pencil sketches and the final color artwork.

| In order to provide the most information for young readers, "Castle" has a variety of different shaped flaps with even more pop-ups inside. The small pop-up to the left of the knight is actual working catapult that can launch a paper spit wad!
|
No pop-up book associated with Sabuda & Reinhart would be complete without something shiny and "Castle" is no exception. The large pop-up of the knight is clad from head to toe in silver armor!
|
At the end of the book a large banquet takes place with all the guests seated at long tables piled high with food.
|
 |
 |
When the flap at the side of the banquet is opened, it automatically causes the king to "dub" the knight! This fantastic pop-up book will be released next year and we'll be sure to bring you more updates and offer it at the Gift Shop.
