Description

Explore the fascinating history of movable books with this scholarly study from Routledge. While many people associate interactive books only with modern pop-ups, this work reveals a much deeper history of narrative media that existed long before. These hybrid artifacts blend words, images, and moving parts to sit at the intersection of stories, toys, and games. In Interactive Books, Jacqueline Reid-Walsh provides a historical and comparative look at early movable books and how children engaged with them. The research focuses on the specific era from the mid-17th to the early-19th centuries, a time when these objects became closely linked to childhood. This book is an essential resource for those interested in children's literature, the history of publishing, and how media evolves over time. It offers a unique perspective on how physical components changed the way stories were told and experienced by young readers.
