How Many?

Ron van der Meer is a pioneer of the modern pop-up book and has published more than 150 books, including over 100 pop-ups. His best-known pop-ups include The Art Pack, The Kid's Art Pack, The Math Pack, and Monster Island. He has also sold more than 2 million greeting cards. He lives in Berkshire, England. This is his first pop-up in over six years.

This is a book that truly has to be seen to be appreciated. Each spread features a different shape (square, circle, star, triangle, rectangle) that has been cleverly paper-engineered to form spectacular sculptures. Readers are invited to find and count as many items as they can per spread-shapes within shapes, shapes of different colors, and so on. Whether readers search and count or not, the beautiful paper sculptures will be admired by all who see them. This is a book like no other and belongs on everyone's home bookshelf.

Review, Newsweek (circ: 3,145,362), October 29, 2007:
"Read "How Many," an artsy, modern pop-up book ... It's a book for kids, but you'll have just as much fun with it."
