Safari by Dan Kainen
Why just read about the way a cheetah can run up to 60mph when you can actually watch him running, too? Featuring eight animals (cheetah, rhino, elephant, giraffe, gazelle, zebra, gorilla, and lion), this title provides the information you'd expect to hear from a real safari tour guide about each animal.
"Shots of cheetahs, rhinos, and gazelles spring to life as the pages turn" --Entertainment Weekly --Audubon magazine "Lenticular technology takes a big leap forward with this virtual safari." --PW magazine --Entertainment Weekly "An imaginative interpretation of the real thing." --Audubon magazine
Dan Kainen is an artist, designer, and inventor living in New York City. He is the creator of the bestselling Photicular books Safari, Ocean, Polar, Jungle, and Wild. His website is DanKainen.com.While working with some of the pioneers of holography, Dan created a special spotlight that was used by Soho's Museum of Holography to light holograms. The related field of holography led to Dan's interest in lenticular art and, in turn, after nearly a decade of research and experimentation, to the creation of his "Motion Viewer," his third patent in that field and the inspiration for Safari and the other Photicular books.
