Orchard Books
In 2006, Tracy was commissioned by popup specialists Robert Sabuda and Matthew Reinhart to illustrate the New York Times bestselling popup book, “Castle” with text and paper-engineering by Kyle Olmon. Over fifteen intricate pop-ups accompany the informative text, which guides readers through the different aspects of life and status in a medieval castle. Readers learn about the parts of a castle as well as food preparation, education, religious practices, knighting ceremonies, battles and royal feasts.
An elaborate, dimensional display was created to showcase the books in bookstores.
