Illumipedia by Barbara Taylor - Book

In Illumipedia, discover animals, insects, dinosaurs and the ocean deep with your three-colour lens as you explore the world and its natural phenomena like never before.

Bringing together content from five books in the iconic Illumi series, this new treasury spans the best of Nature, Oceans, Bugs and Dinosaurs – across six continents. Each spectacular artwork is really three images in one: use the magic lens to reveal different layers to the environment you’re in.

Each chapter begins with an introduction to one of six continents: Asia, Africa, Europe, North America, South America and Australasia & Oceania.

• In the Nature section, your red lens reveals daytime animals, your blue lens reveals nocturnal animals, and your green lens reveals the environments they live in.
• In the Oceans section, your red lens reveals fish, your blue lens shows the other creatures that call each ocean home, and your green lens sheds light on underwater seascapes.
• In the Bugs section, meet insects through your red lens, other creepy-crawlies through your blue lens, and the miniature worlds they inhabit through your green lens.
• In the Dinosaurs section, witness - what else? - dinosaurs through your red lens, other prehistoric creatures through your blue lens, and long-gone environments through your green lens.

From the redwood forests of modern-day North America to the vast, prehistoric expanse of Gondwana, and from the tiniest ant to the blue whale, Illumipedia is a journey through time and around the world to champion nature in all its forms. With updated facts and stats and brand-new artworks from the inimitable Carnovsky, this new instalment designed for the bookshelf is sure to inspire awe and wonder at the natural world.
