An Incredible Santoro Swing(TM) Pop-up
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to ride a train, an airplane, a boat, a car, and a rocket ship...all in the same day? Jump aboard each vehicle, and let your imagination run wild as you soar through fluffy clouds, sail through deep blue oceans, and finally zoom off to the moon in a rocket!
With amazing 3-D pop-ups that swing out of the page and fun read-aloud, rhythmic text, this is one voyage you won't forget!

Far, far away
The bright colors in Journey to the Moon by husband-and-wife graphic designers Lucio and Meera Santoro give it a storybook quality. But the defining feature of this book is the use of suspended pop-up elements: a steam locomotive in the Harry Potter-esque opening spread, a Spruce Goose-like plane (puffy clouds and the view of houses down below complete the illusion of flight), a Jeep kicking up dust. This series of adventures prepares the intrepid young narrator for the ultimate one—dodging asteroids and star clusters as his bright-red rocket ship heads to the Moon, where a lunar module and other surprises await.
