A New York Times bestseller, Safari is a magical journey for the whole family. Readers, as if on African safari, encounter eight wild animals that come alive using never-before-seen Photicular technology. Each full-color image is like a 3-D movie on the page, delivering a rich, fluid, immersive visual experience. The result is breathtaking. The cheetah bounds. The gazelle leaps. The African elephant snaps its ears. The gorilla munches the leaves off a branch. It’s mesmerizing, as visually immediate as a National Geographic or Animal Planet special.
Accompanying the images is Safari, the guide It begins with an evocative journal of a safari along the Mara River in Kenya and interweaves the history of safaris. Then for each animal there is a lively, informative essay and an at-a-glance list of important facts. It’s the romance of being on safari—and the thrill of seeing the animals in motion— in a book unlike any other.

"It really is amazing technology. But like the saying goes about dogs talking or walking on two legs or however that goes... don't let your amazement that someone can do something distract you from the fact they are not doing it well.
I feel like a creative person could find ways to make the motion solicit laughs or gasps. Just seeing an animal chew or walk is actually quite dull. Why not show some interesting moment or at least something educational?
Basically, after the 'huh? How is it moving?' wears off, all you really have is a very few blurry pics of boring stuff.
Much better to get a book of old fashioned high quality nature photos. And if you want to see the animals move, get a DVD.
I'm afraid the baby we got this for will lose interest very quickly because novelty is all this book has going for it.
I'm relieved at least we didn't dive right in and order the whole series."

Safari A Photicular Book Dan Kainen Carol Kaufmann Books Reviews
- This book is absolutely AMAZING! As you turn the pages the pictures "come to life" as if you are watching a short video!
Normally when I purchase a gift on I just have them wrap it and send the gift directly to the person, but as a Christmas present I bought a few of these "Photicular" books and wanted to wrap them myself..
I was simply amazed when I looked through it! Even my Husband had to come over and see for himself.
Not only would I recommend these as a gift, I would suggest having them be delivered to you first so you can enjoy them before you give them away! 😠- I bought this for my 2-year-old niece, and she squealed delightedly with every page turn (see video). This was the most passed around and asked about Christmas present, including by my grandpa, because he wants the full series to show and share with his friends in his retirement community. The level of information is a bit much for toddlers to grasp, but you can still do rough estimates of how many toddlers tall and heavy each animal is and practice animal noises and identification with little ones until they can comprehend the more advanced words. Probably best to have adult supervision to prevent little fingers from picking apart the thicker pages.

I'm relieved at least we didn't dive right in and order the whole series. - Received my Safari Photicular book quickly and I totally love it! In fact, not only am I fascinated with it, my husband and four year old grandson love it too. It feels like you're actually watching the animals run in the wild. I wish I could afford to actually see them in the wild, but for now Nat Geo and books like this fill the void. The book gives a quick blurb about the animal's size, habitat, diet, and population status and has a great feel and vintage look to it. The only complaint I have (reason for 4 stars) is that a proceed of the purchase does not go to help protect these beautiful animals. I just find that I'm much more aware these days of the purchases I make and whether or not they contribute to a greater good. That doesn't take away from the beauty of the book though. I'm pretty sure anyone you purchase this for would be fascinated with it and love it.
- I am a school bus driver. One of my students brought this book on the bus and showed it to me. I fell in love with it!!!! My granddaughter loves to read, and loves animals. So, I bought all three books for her birthday. She loves them!!!! They look so real!!!!! I would recommend these 3 books to anyone who has kids/grandkids who love to read, and loves animals.
- The coolest book you will ever see. Definitely a coffee table book that will wow everyone. It looks beautiful, antique like on the surface, very classy. Then whe you open it and see the optical illusion of the movement of the animals, it's so very cool. I saw this at someone's house & just had to purchase one for myself. It also has very interesting facts about the animals on the page. I would recommend this to anyone. Don't let the price put you off, it's very well constructed.
- Bought this book for my 18-month-old niece and it's a great book. A tad bit on the expensive side given that there is less than 10 pages. But the effects on the book is wondrous. I, myself, was mesmerized when I first looked at this book the first day I got it.
Probably would not buy anything like this again since it is a bit too expensive for me. - Found these on . They are amazing and so well designed and written. Bought all 5 of the series for gifts for grandchildren. We have been reading and enjoying them ourselves first. Like going to school in our 60s. Great quality.
