This book was okay, but definitely not as good as others of this genre (pop-up/interactive). There really wasn't enough to "play" with in this one, which is, to me, half the fun of getting them in the first place. I felt that there were a lot of area that could have been made interactive, but were simply printed onto the pages.
And, as neat as it may have appeared to use handwriting on the pages, the bookmakers shouldn't have used cursive (or the person's in this book anyways) because it did make it hard to read at times. Some of it was also a little boring.
I also noticed that on the back of a "postcard" of the Taj Mahal, the "sender" referred to it as a palace they had seen while on their tour of India... apparently while someone was researching fairy folklore for this book, they weren't doing the same for Indian history, as the Taj Mahal is a tomb.
