Sabuda will give the keynote address and lead the participants in a hands-on pop-up activity in the morning. He also will sign copies of his books (available at the Kent State University Bookstore) during the lunch break.
[Sabuda books]Robert Sabuda's books are known the world over for their intricate, stunning artistry. For example, a New York Times review of his Alice's Adventures in Wonderland said, "The veteran Robert Sabuda's more ambitiously engineered version ... has raised the bar within the genre. Sabuda, a veteran artist and pop-up creator (The Christmas Alphabet, The Wizard of Oz), is also a movable book maven ... He has created an object that is the most absorbing book/toy I've played with in a long time. The intelligent paper trickery on each spread is, well, awesome.... Surprise is essential to the success of any pop-up book -- although with some of the less inventive ones, after the first couple of routine pop-ups the viewer's expectations are likely to diminish. Sabuda has surprises on every spread..."
