In the Beginning, the Book of Genesis
-
- The seven days of Creation. Each disc represents a day and includes a pull out excerpt from Genesis about that particular day.
-
- Noah’s ark.
-
- Joseph interpreting the dreams of the Pharoah.
-
- Jacob’s Ladder. Notice how the artwork is reproduced on acetate so that you look through several layers of “stained glass” windows.
-
- The Tower of Babel. This pop-up extends upward to a height of 18 inches! Matthew Reinhart graciously shared his design of this mechanism, originally used in his book, The Jungle Book.

The most ambitious project in this series yet. This book contains six pivotal scenes from the Book of Genesis. Booklets throughout are packed with historical information and Master artworks relevant to the scene. The spread of Jacob’s Dream of the Ladder to Heaven is especially breathtaking, with the art printed on acetate to simulate stained glass art.
