BRAINBOX - AN GOOD AUTHOR SHOULD ALSO BE ARTIST & A PAPER ENGINEER

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to:

Write and design a pop-up book cover or page of a book for children.

You can write as much or as little as you like but, in addition to your writing, you must include at least one special feature using science, technology, engineering and/or mathematics.

Paper engineering 'pop-up' elements can add emotion and meaning to any book of words.

You can add a simple, engineered pop-up to a book quite easily: All you need is a story, a couple of extra hours, and a few simple materials.
