    {Holiday Gift Guide} Silver Dolphin “Peter Pan” Pop-Up Book Review (& Giveaway Ends 12/20)

    By 176 Comments

    ABOUT:

    Silver Dolphin Books publishes activity, novelty, and educational nonfiction books for preschoolers to 12-year-olds. Highly interactive formats such as the Field Guides and Uncover series both educate and entertain older children.

    MY THOUGHTS:

    My sons are starting to really like books (finally) and the more interactive the book, the better.  Whether it be musical, pop-up, have flaps to open or just really great illustrations, they need the book to be exciting for them. I got the chance to review a Silver Dophin book called “Peter Pan” and it is amazing!

    Peter Pan

    Author: J. M. Barrie, Paul Hess, Libby Hamilton
    Format: Pop-Up Book
    Pages: 16 pp.
    Age Range: 4 and up

    Price: $18.95

    Everyone loves a bedtime story, even Peter Pan himself, who plucked the Darling children from their nursery one night just so Wendy could tell him stories. Join Peter, Tinkerbell and the Darling children on a magical adventure to Neverland. This new Classic Pop-Ups book brings the beloved J.M. Barrie tale to life with marvelous illustrations by Paul Hess, extraordinary pop-ups, and atmospheric sounds and music. Fly with Peter Pan over London while Big Ben peals over the dark city; enjoy a laugh in Peter’s underground home; hear the tick-tocking crocodile attack Captain Hook; and sail back home through the clouds on the Jolly Roger. Peter Pan is an absolutely enchanting book for children of all ages, including adults who never grew up themselves.

    When I first opened this pop-up book, I didn’t know what to expect, but it certainly wasn’t music!  Yes not only does the book have beautiful illustrations but also music/sounds on different pages.  The book is magical!  My 2 and 3 year old were amazed at the book and even though I haven’t had a chance to read the story to them yet (because they are so excited about the music and pop-ups) they love it.  I think this would be a great gift for any child, Peter Pan fan or not.  The illustrations though are beautifully done and you can tell some thought went into designing this book.  Even adults that love Peter Pan this would be a great collectors item for them!  Overall, I am so glad I got the chance to check out a book from Silver Dolphin Books or I may have missed out on them.  Oh and yes you can change the batteries if you need to in the back of the book.  The pages are also thicker so they don’t tear (at least not easily) when kids grab them to touch and look at them! 

    BUY IT: You can find Silver Dolphin Books online at Border, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon.  The Peter Pan (Classic Pop Ups)is $12.89 at Amazon.

    WIN IT: (1) US winner will receive the book of their choice from Silver Dolphin Books so you can receive an age/topic appropriate title for your child.

      I would choose The Wheels on the Bus for my 4 year olds. We have that game and he really likes it, so I’m sure he would like the book too.
