Description
The strange and beautiful creatures that call the Galapagos Islands home come to life in this breathtaking 3D celebration of one of the world's most fascinating and popular ecological travel destinations. Hammerhead sharks, penguins, tortoises, egrets, eels, flamingoes, and rays are among the amazing array of marine and shore life featured in revolutionary, up-close stereo photography, underwater and on land. Sturdy 3-D glasses innovatively bound into the cover, accessible, informative captions that present the most interesting facts about each animal and its environment; and a helpful glossary combine to make this book an appealing introduction to natural science for children and fun portrait of one of the natural world's most unique and intriguing places.
