Now
that the children are back at school, they might enjoy some
wonderful, pictorial books, about animals. Gardner Publishing
is distributing such books. For the older child (6-9) Rain
Forest Animals and Ocean Animals published by Flying
Frog Publishing present informative facts about the animals
with poster size pictures. In Rain Forest Animals there
are poster size pictures of a jaguar, a scarlet macaw, a mandrill
and a tree boa. The illustrations are very life-like for two
dimensional color illustrations. The accompanying text is very
informative about the animals presented in the book.
Ocean
Animals is for the same age group with the same process
of viewing the oversize pictures through unfolding each page
to discover the following: a jelly fish, a great white shark,
an octopus, a dolphin and a blue whale.
Por
the younger child, 4-6, there are a couple of wonderful pop-up
books, called Dinosaur and Sea published by Grandreams
Books limited. Dinosaur has wonderful pop-ups of different
dinosaurs from the Parasaurolophus to the Stegasaurus among
others. The pop-up of the Tyrannosaurus, including the Archaeopteryx
and the Tyrannosaurus face is a real knockout! Sea’s pop-ups
include a shark, a dolphin, a crab and a walrus with equally
colorful pop-ups as Dinosaur.
