Monika and Hans D. Eyeopeners!: All About Animal Vision. Publisher:
Blackbirch Press; 1st edition (September 1, 1998) ISBN: 1567112161
"Introduces the many types of eyes found in the animal kingdom, including those of the dragonfly, adder, gorilla, lynx, and vulture, and tells how animals use their unique eyes to survive. From The Critics School Library Journal Gr 2-4-How do animals view each other and the world around them? How do they see? The book is organized by eye type, description, or kind of vision: "Compound Eyes," "Antenna Eyes," "Underwater Eyes," etc. A wide variety of mammals, birds, reptiles, and other creatures are introduced. The brief text consists only of captions and includes just a few facts about the kind of vision these animals have. There is no explanation as to how these different types of eyes work. This profusely illustrated book includes lots of close-up photographs; each two-page chapter has a large, full-color photo facing three or four smaller shots of different animals. While there is not enough information for reports, this title will suffice for browsing. - Jacqueline Elsner, Athens Regional Library, GA " |
