内容説明
Get ready to take a walk on the wild side! National Geographic Children's Books' brand-new reference work provides families and children with everything they need to know about the animal kingdom.
You'll meet more than 1,000 animals as you explore the pages of National Geographic Encyclopedia of Animals. This comprehensive volume introduces the entire animal kingdom: mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and all kinds of invertebrates, from sea squirts to worms and spiders.
Your tour of the animal kingdom will take you to every corner of the planetfrom rugged mountain slopes to ocean depths and from steamy jungles to baking deserts and icy polar regions.
First, you'll find out just what an animal is, where animals live, how they behave, and why some are endangered. Then the parade of animals begins, each group in its own color-coded section. A lively introductory essay pointing out each group's distinguishing features is followed by page after page of stunning illustrations, engaging text, fun facts, maps, and more about the amazing range of animals within each group. The vibrant illustrations seem to crawl, chatter, screech, growl, and jump off every page. There's also a glossary to help with all the new terms you'll be learning, and a comprehensive index makes it easy to find just the animal you need for that report you're writing or just to satisfy your curiosity.
You'll find: More than 1,000 species vividly illustrated Fascinating facts at your fingertips Range maps for all major groups of animals Cross-sections and cutaways Photo essays that show animals in their habitats The latest conservation data Features on scientific discoveries and breakthroughs Scientific and common names for all animals Size listings for all illustrated animals Contents prepared under the direction of an international authority on animal sciences Comprehensive glossary and index

購入して、真っ先にページをめくった。
昔読んだ日本の百科事典もよく出来ていると思ったが、外国のは一味違うと感じる。
生物の細かな生体データなどが掲載されていて、子供で読み解くのは無理だけど、あえて難しいのを混ぜておくと
むしろ、何だろうと後々興味の尾を引く材料になる。
イラストも物凄くリアル、説明も豊富、購入したのが海外の百科事典なので、動物の種類は日本の固有種ではないですが、子供にはそんなのはお構いなしで、贈る際には約束事として、絵を落書きしないことを約束して、読んで欲しいと渡しました。
家中、どこででも、この本が鎮座してます。
持ち歩いては、そこかしこで、読んでいるんでしょう。
内容は英文のみなので、意味は分からない無くても、動物の絵と英文の動物の学名（名前）は、一致させて読んでるみたい。
年齢に合わせた、本も大切ですが、背伸びをさせて読ませる本だとすれば、こうした百科事典は良いですね。
同じ（メーカーは失念）海外の本で、人体の解剖学を収めた百科事典は、子供の時分に私が読んで、興味が尽きなくて大人に色んな種類の本をお願いしたのを、今でも思い出します。

A little disappointed, but still a nice book
2006/12/17
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
I bought this with the idea of reading it with our daughter in the future. It has some good information in it, and of course some nice pictures. But I was hoping for more comprehensive info, like what a particular animal eats, where it sleeps, its behaviors, etc. But the book is limited by its size. It'd have to be much bigger to have all that data. It has brief explanations and descriptions. It is a good book to introduce many of the numerous animals.

Great but not many photos
2008/6/19
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
I think this book is excellent content-wise. However, it has mostly drawings of animals, not actual photos. I was disappointed in this as the other reviews seemed to suggest it has lots and lots of pictures--these pictures are actually drawings (which are very well done) and they are indeed very plentiful, but I will be sending it back for a book with more actual photos of animals.

Same high quality as the 1st ed., but with a prettier front cover
2007/1/15
形式:ハードカバー
I bought this encyclopedia for my 7 year-old daughter who is obsessed with the great cats. She was thrilled! We had borrowed the previous edition (with the tree frog on the front) from the library, so I already knew that she loved the book. But now, with the tiger on the front, it's one of her favorite possessions. We're a month past Christmas, and she is still consulting this book regularly, drawing pictures of the various animals shown in full-color, and learning so many facts that she's becoming a walking encyclopedia herself. The organization and layout is very user-friendly. This is not an alphabetized A-Z book of animals. The mammals, insects, birds, etc. are all groups according to categories of related creatures. This is a very helpful feature. We give the book two thumbs up!!
