great reading helper
This book really helps young children learn to read. My son is 3 yrs. old, and he does a really good job recognizing the pictures that are placed throughout the book. He loves Diego, and I was actually surprised when we began reading the book. I pointed to the different animals like armadillo, and he knew exactly what it was. These books help children learn words through the pictures....I bought ...

Beautiful Photos of African Women
I have the 2009 calendar by this same photographer, Art Wolfe. I've received so much enjoyment from it that I decided to get the 2010 edition and I'm glad that I did. Again, the photographs of African women are beautiful. Their traditional dress, joyous expressions and wonderful array of beadwork and fabrics take my breath away. The photographs are of women from Mali, Ethiopia, Kenya and ...

Beauty and Inspiration Far Surpassing the Rest
I have been a photography enthusiast since the 80s and I've run BetterPhoto since 1996. Along the way, books by Ansel Adams, John Shaw, Frans Lanting and countless others have provided inspiration and direction. One day at a PMA photography convention, I saw Art and introduced myself. He was kind, gracious and friendly. He showed me his new book and I bought it on the spot. I can honestly ...

Alaska as Art
Whether this book of color photographs accurately shows what Alaska really looks like, I don't know, because I haven't been there yet. But having finished it, I'm planning my trip! But I can say this is a great book of photographs of nature. Anyone who loves to look at photographs will love this book. Wolfe demonstrates that he is one of the greatest living outdoor photographers. His sense of ...

I enjoyed this book immensely. The comparisons,each given by Martha Hill and Art Wolfe brought a different dynamic to the picture at hand. It was very helpful in the learning process of what makes a great photograph.

Great Gift and Beautiful Coffee Table Book
I gave The Inside Passage to Alaska as a gift to my father and his wife after they returned from a cruise of that area. It is a beautiful picture book that captures the full range of what they saw and experienced, as my Dad and I had on a similar cruise years before. It makes a beautiful addition to their coffee table books and allows them to fondly remember and easily share their trip with ...

As good as it gets
As a web designer I've been using Photoshop professionally for years. I've also worked on lots of photographs, both my own and those I've gotten from clients. I don't need a how to book on layers, cropping and levels. I've got a good understanding of the basic Photoshop tools, and have benefitted from Scott Kelby's Photoshop CS for Photographers. But Kelby's book is a recipe book both useful and ...

Great photos of a natural wonder.
This is a very nice book, even though I was hoping for something more. The pictures are fantastic, and even though I've lived next to Puget Sound for most of my life, half the images were of things I've never seen. The text makes a good case for people to care about protecting Puget Sound. I hope that many people read it and are inspired to take the bus or use a push mower more often to help ...

Gorgeous photos and good, solid info on primates
Primarily a photography book, PRIMATES offers an intimate and often humorous (but not condescendingly so) look into wild primate life. Even the brief text, by Barbara Sleeper, is first-rate, revealing details about each species not often encountered by lay people. This is not meant to be a comprehensive text, however, but a celebration of some of our closest relatives. The photography is at ...

The Living Wild
It is a beautiful book as one would expect because the photos are by Art Wolfe. In addition there are descriptions of how and why he took each picture. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in wildlife and/or photography.

An attractive introduction to Pacific Northwest animals
While the some of the terminology is a bit difficult for the intended audience, "Northwest Animal Babies" is still an attractive introduction to the subject, especially when read-aloud and discussed by an adult. This book covers animals in the region ranging from Oregon in the south to Alaska in the north; and from Montana in the east to Washington in the west. Since our school is in a rural area ...

Fabulous alphabet / Northwest photo book
This is a beautiful book of photos relating to the Pacific Northwest. I live in Yakima and was happily surprised to find "Y is for Yakama" - they even spelled the Yakama's name with the newly adopted spelling. It goes through listing animals, geographic features and native people. This is a fantastic book for anyone, but especially those wanting to teach their children about the Pacific ...

Beautiful But Limited
This book is full of beautiful photographs. Some of the images of Mt. Rainier and the Olympic Penninsula are stunning. If this is what you are looking for, this is an excellent choice. However, if you are looking for a book full of images of the entire Northwest, I expect you will be at least a little disappointed. In the introduction, the author talks of her youth spent in places like the oregon ...

A fine coffee table book and a gift perfect for any concerned about the world's fading species
A few more kills by poachers, and many of these creatures could simply cease to exist. "Animals on the Edge: Reporting from the Frontline of Extinction" is a combination photography and wildlife book discussing these critically endangered creatures, with in-depth descriptions of each species and how close it is to extinction. Aside from the text are two-page, full color spreads of these animals - ...
