Wonderful combo of sight, sound & education Birdscapes combines engaging pop-up landscapes with stereo sound bird songs. It is a great activity for families as kids, parent and grandparents will find something compelling in the book. It would also be a great teaching tool in schools or libraries. When you open a spread, you hear each bird's song. There is an on/off button so you can control the sound. I have turned it off and left it opened to a spread as a decorative element in my home. It catches visitor's attention. The back has more information on each bird in the book. Very unusual and appreciated gift item.. Beautiful Diversion Will I C This is a lovely book, well thought out (although the pop-up landscape takes some imagination to understand everything you see). Initially, I bought it for my wife and step-daughter, who both love those musical greeting cards. The day it arrived, though, a young cousin had a birthday party which we hadn't prepared for, so the book went to her as a gift. She's eleven, and a bird lover--it was a BIG hit. And I bought a second one for our house.My favorite way to look at it is as a momentary diversion as I wander through the house. As I walk by, I stop a moment and just open it up to some random envi. Anjuli DiMaria said Wonderful Pop up Landscapes. This book engages not only adults, but my 5 month old son AND our cat! The sound is spectacular and the pop up landscapes intricate and lush (the Eastern Forest and Swamp in particular). I think anyone interested in birds and birdsong would find this book a welcome addition to the library.
