childhood memories

this encyclopedia was literally my favorite book growing up, i've probably read all the animal descriptions at least a few times. great illustrations, great general information. perfect for children's reports. was also very useful for drawing and painting inspirations

Beautifully detailed illustrations

I've been enjoying this book for over ten years. Highly recommended for the naturalist in your life, especially the young ones. The illustrations are spectacular. The amphibian section is mindblowingly realistic and they are all works of art. It's a great reference book and an interesting addition to your coffee table. The main animal phyla are covered: mammals, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and fish. Subsequent orders are all found. I wish they'd make an encyclopedia that would cover lower forms--I bet that would be amazing! This is a useful guide for any traveler encountering new beasties.

This is the most valuable nature book in our library!

The illustrations in this book are fantastic! The artist's renderings of animals are colorful, refined and better than photographs. The book is divided into five sections, mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fishes. Each page offers illustrations and a discription of the animal, it's habitat, and behaviour. If we see an animal and don't know what it is, the first thing we do is look in this book. A wonderful addition to any home library.
