形式:ハードカバー
とにかく分厚い。サブダ先生の本よりまだ厚い。
内容は「鳥の生態」７景。森林、熱帯雨林など色々な環境で生活する鳥達が描かれています。POP-UPの仕掛け自体はそんなに飛びぬけた出来ではないのですが（平均以上ではあります）、本が厚くなる原因となっている音声モジュールとの連動がすばらしい。この手のICチップ音声としては相当高音質の部類に入ると思いますし、ステレオです。POP-UP上のレイアウトに従ってそれぞれの鳥たちの鳴き声が聞こえます。音声の長さも各シーン20秒強あって、なかなかのものです。時間と定位でどの鳥の声かわかるチャートがついていて「最初に左から聞こえるのはこの鳥」というのがイラストですぐわかるようになっています。
大判で価格もちょっと高いですが、小学校低学年から充分楽しめると思います。

Wonderful combo of sight, sound & education
2008/10/7
形式:ハードカバー
Birdscapes combines engaging pop-up landscapes with stereo sound bird songs. It is a great activity for families as kids, parent and grandparents will find something compelling in the book. It would also be a great teaching tool in schools or libraries. When you open a spread, you hear each bird's song. There is an on/off button so you can control the sound. I have turned it off and left it opened to a spread as a decorative element in my home. It catches visitor's attention. The back has more information on each bird in the book. Very unusual and appreciated gift item.

NICE BUT MISSING SOMETHING
2009/1/6
形式:ハードカバー
I bought this book for my husband, we are interested in birding. It turns out it probably will be better for our grandchild, as a good introduction to bird habitats. It's got everything the other reviewers said. But there are things missing: like, any idea of which birds are which and make which sounds. There are no instructions or identification of any of the birds or sounds, that we could find. If I am missing something here, please let me know! I bought this book at BJ's club for $35 plus tax. I will have to look elsewhere for bird identification, probably will get a DVD.

Authentic bird songs in a pop-up landscape
2008/11/20
形式:ハードカバー
Chronicle Books and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology produced the excellent Birdsongs books that display a particular bird and then play their songs with the push of a button. Birdscapes is the newest book in the series; in this version, seven different landscapes pop up, each with several birds and with the sounds of the resident birds.
The sounds come from the Macaulay Library archive. The jagged, rocky island landscape is particularly effective. According to Miyoko Chu, director of communications at the Lab:
"We included the sounds of nocturnal Fork-tailed and Leach's storm-petrels recorded on Saint Lazaria Island near Sitka, Alaska just last year. Our recordists lay in sleeping bags with microphones as the air and ground pulsated with the sounds of storm-petrels flying overhead and courting in the burrows below."
Other books in the series include:
Bird Songs: 250 North American Birds in Song.
Bird Songs From Around the World: Featuring Songs of 200 Birds from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology (Push and Listen).
A Field Guide to Backyard Bird Song: Eastern and Central North America (Peterson Field Guide Audio Series)
The Backyard Birdsong Guide: Western North America (Backyard Birdsong Guide)
Each of the preceding books is excellent at helping the reader to link the song and the sight of birds together. The birdscape book is appealing to both children and to adults, and the high fidelity is a remarkable achievement. The Lab is absolutely right; this book "highlights how the sounds of birds are an unforgettable and defining feature of any landscape."
