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.
