Editorial Review:
They're gripping, they're realistic, and they're universal--those primal scream-creating nightmares that every reader has had at one time or another. The Pop-Up Book of Nightmares brings them vividly to life with ten richly illustrated, over-the-top pop-ups that put the reader right in the center of a world gone mad. Which one of these nightmares did you have last night?--Being unprepared for a final exam--Going for a midnight snack and finding a refrigerator teeming with rats--Giving birth to a baby that's anything but normal--Being chased by a menace that seems to be everywhere at once--Free falling with no hope of a safe landingThe Pop-Up Book of Nightmares is the perfect gift for anyone who wants to mine the psychological riches of their deepest slumber.
