ANT (Bouncing Bugs)

A pop-up book about ants captures the insects squirting acid at enemies, laying eggs, tending their queen, and tidying their chambers in underground nests, with a paper ant sculpture to be hung and bounced from the elastic in the back cover.

David Hawcock has designed and engineered many successful pop-up titles, including Journal of Inventions: Leonardo Da Vinci and The Amazing Pull-Out Pop-Up Body in a Book. After graduating with a degree in graphic design, David worked for design groups in London before turning freelance and specializing in 3-D graphics. He worked with advertising agencies and publishers, including Saatchi and Saatchi and Dorling Kindersley, and he later set up his own company creating ideas-based projects for publishers around the world. David lives in Bath, UK, is married, and has three children.
