Synopsis
Trek into the wild heart of the rain forest.
Discover a world teeming with life. Dense and humid and filled with secrets, rain forests are home to more than half the world's plants and animals. Using unique Photicular technology, Jungle parts the mysterious veil of this sun-dappled land, revealing in color and motion the living exuberance within.
Watch a tarantula scuttle across the forest floor. A dancing whipsnake flick its tongue. A Bengal tiger on the prowl, and a brilliant red-and-green macaw soar above the canopy.
Experience it for yourself.

About the Author
Dan Kainen is an artist, designer, and inventor living in New York City. He is the creator of the bestselling Photicular books Safari, Ocean,Polar, Jungle, and Wild. His website is DanKainen.com.
While working with some of the pioneers of holography, Dan created a special spotlight that was used by Soho’s Museum of Holography to light holograms. The related field of holography led to Dan’s interest in lenticular art and, in turn, after nearly a decade of research and experimentation, to the creation of his “Motion Viewer,” his third patent in that field and the inspiration for Safari and the other Photicular books.
Kathy Wollard is a science journalist and the author of the bestselling How Come? Every Kid’s Science Questions Explained. Her work has appeared in Newsday, Scholastic, Popular Science, and Family Fun magazines. She lives in rural Ohio.
From School Library Journal
Gr 3 Up—Kainen, author of several "Photicular" titles (including Safari and Ocean), wows readers yet again with gorgeous, rippling photos of jungle creatures. A monkey, a snake, a tiger, and a very realistic tarantula all seem to move across the page thanks to the unique photicular images. Wollard, who contributed to the dynamic text, brings even more life to the page with her descriptions of each animal and its connection to its ecosystem. The vibrant photos will make this a highly engaging title for individual and group use. As with other interactive books, the pages may take a beating, and that is something to consider before purchasing. The images are energetic, and the text is informative and interesting. VERDICT This would make a great fit for collections that serve animal lovers and those who can't get enough of the "Photicular" books.—Sarah Knutson, American Canyon Middle School, CA
