Pull Pop Push: Revealing the magic of pop-up books

State Library of South Australia, Adelaide, South AustraliaThu, 11 June 2026

About this event

Pull Pop Push your way into a world of books that move, surprise and delight.

Pull Pop Push explores the art of movable books, from pop-ups and wheels to tunnels, sound books, flap-books and more. Drawn from the State Library's collections, including the Children's Literature Research Collection, these books use carefully engineered paper mechanisms to transform flat pages into lively scenes that unfold before your eyes.

The exhibition brings these ideas to life through scale, perspective and reveal. You can look behind the scenes to discover how movable books work, step through immersive, larger-than-life recreations of iconic works, and trace the evolution of paper engineering from early scientific tools to much-loved children's books.

Created for the young, the curious and the young at heart, Pull Pop Push is a playful and visually engaging experience that celebrates imagination, creativity and the wonder of stories brought to life.
