Pros & Cons
Pros
Bought 3 of them during buy 3 get 1 free promotion. My 2 year olds love it! I am blown away by the gorgeous images in this book. Every picture is stunning.
Dk makes the best coffee table books. Overwhelming dk graphics and the smithsonian institution’s verification of over 6,000 illustrations. This is a book she will treasure for her entire life.
This encyclopedia is full of interesting information. The print is quite fine, so you will need to zoom in to see the entries. A useful glossary and functional index are placed in the back of the book.
Cons
For some reason many of the dk ebooks are blurry and you cannot zoom in on the text. I'm not sure why this is. The functionality is still very limited but at least on that platform the text is high resolution and readable.

There is nothing like opening a book such as this to a random page just to see what there is

This is not a book that you can read from back to front well at least i cant but to be experienced by looking up a specific species or to find treasures through random acts of book openings
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The pages are glossy and have a little bit of weight to them
