The 12 Best Pop-Up Books For Kids of All Ages

"The Wide-Mouthed Frog" ($13, originally $15)

This Amazon bestseller by Keith Faulkner and illustrated by Jonathan Lambert has been loved since it debuted in 1996. The humorous story about a wide-mouth frog from the Okefenokee Swamp also features numerous other outdoor animals sure to please kids who love outdoor excursions. A furry brown mouse, a blue-feathered bird, and another big green animal (with many teeth and a gigantic appetite) appear on the pop-up pages.

"This is a very large book with the coolest pop-outs," an Amazon reviewer commented. "It's a funny little story about a wide-mouth frog that I'd always heard told as a joke. It's fun for little ones to see the physical book, but the clever humor may be over the heads of younger children."
