Description
Pull Pop Push explores the art of movable books, from pop-ups and wheels to tunnels, sound books and flaps.
Drawn from the State Library’s collections, including the Children’s Literature Research Collection, these books use carefully engineered paper mechanisms to transform flat pages into lively scenes that unfold before your eyes.
The exhibition brings these ideas to life through scale, perspective and reveal. Visitors can look behind the scenes to discover how moveable books work, step through immersive, larger-than-life recreations of iconic works, and trace the evolution of paper engineering from early scientific tools to much-loved children’s books.
Created for the young, the curious and the young at heart, Pull Pop Push is a playful and visually engaging experience that celebrates imagination, creativity and the wonder of stories brought to life.
