My husband and I fell in love with DK (especially the Smithsonian line) during a trip ...by Melissa (5 out of 5 stars)
November 22, 2016
My husband and I fell in love with DK (especially the Smithsonian line) during a trip to the Smithsonian museums and wanted to start a collection of books for our daughter. The books are filled with an immense amount of information which is presented in a fascinating, readable way. Of course the author couldn't include absolutely every single detail about the subject at hand, but they still did a wonderful job. The photos are gorgeous and a perfect complement to the information being presented. The books themselves have sturdy binding and stout construction.

Super Nature is a great book about some fascinating animals
by That Grip (5 out of 5 stars)
January 6, 2016
This is a wonderful book geared towards mid - upper elementary school aged kids. The facts are fascinating and well presented. Super Nature is by no means an exhaustive book on anything, but it's not supposed to be. Though the number of animals detailed are limited, as usual with DK books, the subject matter is fantastic. I've learned some facts about several truly remarkable animals while reading it with my son/

A young, future zoo keeper received this book from us for his 9th. birthday. This is an amazing book and he told us he loved the book. We felt it might be a great reference book for older kids and in fact, adults interested in nature. Great book.

My daughter checked this book out at the library and loved it so much that she purchased it with her allowance. She is a true animal lover. This year, we are studying zoology for our homeschooling course. This book will come in handy.
