Dan Kainen: Bugs, Gebunden

Blurb

This book brings you up close and personal with eight different bug species in astounding motion.

Using Photicular technology---an innovative lenticular-based technology that uses precision sliding lenses and four-color video imagery---each image is like a 3D movie on the page, delivering a rich, fluid, immersive visual experience, allowing Bugsto zoom in on the tiny world of insects.

Watch a praying mantis diving for its pray, a house fly rubbing its fore legs, a tarantula skittering across the floor, a leaf-cutter ant hauling a giant leaf up a branch, a dung beetle pushing its ball up a hill, and more. Bugsoffers readers an up-close look at bugs in motion and a window into how they move and behave. Science writer Mara Grunbaum provides an opening essay that delves into the fascinating behavior of these wonderful creatures as well as a detailed profile accompanying each image.
