# Pop-Up City Books Popville Brings a City's Creation to Life By Allison Love | Published 2010-05-06 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popville References: [coolthings](http://www.coolthings.com/popville-pop-up-book/) & [uponafold.au](http://uponafold.com.au/shop/product/bam_cor_pop/) [Popville](http://uponafold.com.au/shop/product/bam_cor_pop/) is a pop-up book which chronicles a city's development from humble rural beginnings to big city life, all via pop-up pictures. Starting with a single church surrounded by trees, Popville flows through the stages of city life until the end pages of Popville are crowded with skyscrapers and a downtown city skyline. The lack of story through written words makes Popville even more of an interesting story book, causing the reader to look at the [3D pop-up images](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tokyo-popups) to link everything together. Popville is artistically striking and is great for all ages.
