Bugs in 3-D

Bugs in 3-D Cover

 

Staff Pick

With amazingly lifelike views and short "biographies" of each bug, Bugs in 3-D is recommended for kids of all ages, and comes complete with 3-D glasses that are built right into the book so you won't lose them. Over forty bugs jump right off the page 3 the Zebra Tarantula will look like it's crawling on your nose!

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The tiniest of creatures loom monstrously into view in this east-to-use, bigger-than-life rendezvous with bugs, complete with 3-D lenses built right in. From butterflies, caterpillars, and bumblebees to scorpions, tarantulas, and praying mantises, each tiny creature is vividly rendered in uncanny depth and detail through the miricle of Mark Blum's stereoscopic photographs. WIth fory-four eye-popping 3-D images, fact-filled captions, and a helpful glossary, Bugs in 3-D will make you bug-eyed with wonder.

Review:

"[A]bsolutely breathtaking....[W]ill have readers wishing for more photos. Unlike the 3-D books with the blue-and-red glasses, these images truly jump off the page. The depth of field achieved is remarkable. The book is a wonderful introduction not only to the field of entomology, but also to photography." School Library Journal
