The Night Before Christmas: A Pop-Up

　　這是一本相當出色的聖誕立體書！取材自Clement Clarke Moore著名的聖誕童詩，紙雕藝術家Robert Sabuda將詩中所描述的聖誕前夕點滴，一一轉化為嘆為觀止的立體景象。書中的細膩設計尤其令人佩服，仔細觀察當大鐘裡的小老鼠爬出來時，時鐘的指針正好旋轉到午夜；當聖誕老人的雪橇翩然降臨時，房間的窗簾也隨之掀起；而最後一頁當麋鹿雪橇劃過天際時，整個村莊的迷人雪景盡收眼底！Sabuda以卓越的透視角度呈現出一幕幕令人驚喜的場景，以白色為基調的設計中，畫龍點睛的色彩更提升了書中的夢幻意境。Sabuda無疑將兒童立體書提升至藝術創作的境界。
