Stairs by Rein Jansma. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781556709630.

First published in the early 1980s to great success, Stairs is now available to a new generation of readers. This unique interactive book surpasses all language barriers, enriching the traditional pop-up book format with fresh, timeless imagery. Its emphasis on visual detail-and its absence of text-makes it a source of simple pleasure and serenity. With 10 pop-up stairs, each with its own uniquely complex construction, Stairs is more than entertainment-it is an intricately designed, precious object. In an age in which a premium is placed on information delivered speedily and electronically, this carefully crafted book, with its specially selected paper and high production values, represents the opposite.
