peer agreement (net): +2| draaischijf turning wheel Explanation: Could be. 10. So what is the history of pop-ups? Have they been around for a long time? Before I answer that, I should make a distinction between two different types of paper engineering, pop-ups and movables. Movables are devices in books like pull tabs and rotating paper wheels, things that the viewer has to manipulate in order for them to work. They’re quite old. The earliest I’ve seen is a turning wheel illustration, called a volvelle, that dates to the 1300’s in a book made not of paper but of vellum or skin. It’s in the collection of the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, and it illustrates the changing phases of the moon when the wheel is turned. https://www.popularkinetics.com/author_interview.html Even the endpapers have something to offer; the front has several shapes that can be magically turned into a different shape by folding in the flaps, and the back offers a turning wheel that reveals different shapes to identify. http://www.adventuresinstorytime.com/2017/02/shapes.html The Bible Made Easy: A Pop-up, Pull-out Interactive Bible Adventure.

As the reader turns the wheel, the discs align images and information. The disc can be perforated to reveal designs underneath.
