Kainen, Dan: Birds

This astounding book comes alive to bring you up close and personal with eight different bird species. Using Photicular technology—an innovative lenticular-based technology that uses precision sliding lenses and four-color video imagery—each image is like a 3D movie on the page, delivering a rich, fluid, immersive visual experience. Penguins hop, Grebes dance in an elaborate courtship ritual, lovebirds preen, the eyes of an owl blink, geese migrate in V formation, a hummingbird sips nectar from a flower, and a mother songbird feeds its new hatchlings. Seeing is believing with the innovative and bestselling Photicular books, and now Birds gives readers a fascinating view of bird behavior in living motion. The opening essay focuses on bird behaviors—the weird, and the surprising. The profile accompanying each animal image includes information on each species. It's an aviary that you can hold in your hands!
