Thomas D. Mangelsen Bücher

THE ANIMAL IN ME is a picture book for all ages, from toddlers who are just learning to turn pages, to eager, first-time readers. This richly illustrated book encourages children to imagine just what kind of animal they most resemble when they are hungry, sleepy, playing, or even screaming. Animated imagery by award-winning photographer Thomas D. Mangelsen will have children participating in story time and even making up their own scenarios. From hummingbirds to tigers, chipmunks to swans, creatures and their unique behaviors are colorful and fun examples for children to learn more about themselves and the natural world around them.

Nature at its most breath-taking is the subject of this remarked volume of photographs. The world's beautiful wilderness regions and the creatures which inhabit them have been the 20 year preoccupation of Thomas D. Mangelsen, one of America's premier nature photographers. In more than 200 full color pictures of Rocky Mountain ranges and African plains, frozen tundra and glimmering waterways and shorelines, Mangelsen captures the poetry of light and shadow, of fleeting instants of animal behavior, and of Nature's stillness and grandeur.
