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.
