    3-0 out of 5 stars I wrote a review, but for some reason
    It ended up in the discussion area, so please read that. Poor Stan Lee, his mighty ship has been taken over by the rats!

    3-0 out of 5 stars It's no OHOTMU, but it does the job
    In the style of their 2004 publication, "The DC Comics Encyclopedia," Dorling Kindersley have released "The Marvel Encyclopedia," a guide to the characters of the Marvel Comics universe. DK are no strangers to Marvel's universe, having frequently released "Ultimate Guide" books covering the histories of Spider-Man, the X-Men, the Hulk, the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and next year, Ghost Rider. But how does this tome, touted as "the definitive guide," stack up?

    4-0 out of 5 stars I Spy Christmas for Everyone
    I ordered I Spy Christmas for my younger sister because our whole family enjoys I Spy books.Some of the sets in this book are: a cookie collage...pinecones in the snow...under the Christmas tree... they're really beautiful!

    5-0 out of 5 stars Oh what fun it is to spy...
    If you're familiar with the I Spy series, you know what to expect in this book. If you're new to the world of I Spy, imagine staring in your fully stocked refrigerator looking for the Philly cream cheese. You know it's there - you just bought it yesterday - but for the life of you, you can't find it. Then your spouse comes by, reaches around you and grabs the tub from beside the two-liter bottle of Pepsi. I Spy is just like that: you know what you're looking for, you know it's in the picture somewhere, and some clown is bound to come by and find it immediately after you've been searching for a half an hour. That's why I recommend letting your spouse have first crack at the pictures. It makes your finding the specified objects a breeze.

    I am taking a medicinal botany class and was not satisfied with the information the text book gave me and wanted to know more I saw this book and ordered it.I love it.It is a must have for someone interested in herbs even my instructor found it helpful.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Best of it's kind
    I have an older edition that my sister bought for me for christmas several years back.It's one of the few books i'll have for the rest of my life because of its incredible value as a comprehensive herb and plant info resource.The edition I have has pictures, names, references in the front with longer descriptions in the back in the same style as an audubon society field guide book.It's great for picking up and reading random stuff or to lookup the medicinal uses of a specific herb.The book never ceases to amaze me.Of all the herb books i've read, this one is time and again the most useful.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Superb Comprehensive Book
    This book is very comprehensive.It is fairly easy to use with both Latin and English names.There are many photographs to support herb descriptions.The book doesn't does not have a botanical key to support identification of more unusual specimens (I don't miss this, others may).

    Can you spy "a tortoise, a hare, a tea bag, a key/ a clock, and a flag on a house in a tree"? It's not easy--but readers of all ages will have a whole lot of fun trying. With more than a dozen I Spy picture books under their belts, including

    5-0 out of 5 stars Lot's of fun
    I bought this book for my kids ages six and seven.They both love it.This book is a nice mix of hard to find and easier to find items.These I spy books also made nice birthday gifts for some other children we know.

    5-0 out of 5 stars My favorite of the I Spy Series!
    My family has enjoyed I Spy Picture Riddles for many years. I Spy Treasure Hunt is my personal favorite. The reader is invited to search for hidden items on pages that represent an imaginary seaside town. The first puzzle page features the train station, while the next two page spread is the "View from Duck Pond Inn". Eventually, the Pirate's treasure is revealed! I enjoy the less flashy and cluttered look of this particular book, though my kids seem to highly enjoy all the I Spy books. I recommend them for all ages!

    4-0 out of 5 stars Not a General Reference Book
    I was a little disappointed with this book because I thought it would have more information on specific plants.It gives very little info on the specific plants and focuses on the design aspects.As a novice gardener, this book has not been very helpful to me.Don't buy it if you want a general reference guide.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful for growing everything under the sun!
    This book covers almost everything including how to grow Blackberries and grapes which caught my attention and how to take care of cuttings, which I had never done before and had all sorts of doubts about.Thanks to this wonderful jewel, my back yard is now filled with all sorts of exotic flowers and plants that I have grown from cuttings off of other plants and flowers in only a few short weeks.

    Bought this book for my kids who are ages six and seven.Good mix of hard to find and easier to find items.We also bought I spy books for other kids that we know and they were hooked.Makes a nice gift.

    5-0 out of 5 stars I Spy is a terrific series.
    My husband and I have more fun with these books whether it's with our grandson or our friends.We really get into it and found that it helps our eye coordination and our memory.I would highly recommend this to anyone at any age!

    5-0 out of 5 stars Truly a great learning book!
    I find these books great mind stretchers, even for us older folks.This book especially is a learning tool because there is a page with all the letters of the alphabet surrounded by little objects that start with each letter.Another page groups things by category with overlapping categories.Really well done. ...

    5-0 out of 5 stars Great book but it's for young I spy beginners
    This is a really cute book and would be perfect for a I spy beginner and a younger reader. My child is 3 1/2 years old and she loves I spy books and this is not for her. I gave it five stars because if I had purchased this last year when we were at a different level it would be fine. I will keep it and bring it out when my son is a bit older.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Very Good!
    I bought this for my two year old and he loves it.He knows where all the pictures are ( he did before we left the store) an he still sits there with it in front of him for long peroids of time.I am trying to get the whole set.I don't know how many are in the set though and I was hoping that there would be some place where you could buy them in a complete set.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Perfect size for families on the go!
    A smaller version of the full sized I Spy books, these books are just great. They include cropped pictures from the regular I Spy books and are printed on durable cardboard - just right for little hands!Read more

    2-0 out of 5 stars Freaky-looking clowns, yikes
    I just had to say that when I read the other review that said the clowns in here were too scary looking, I chuckled-- until I took a look at the book myself and saw them!Today I was in B&N and saw this book, and I must say those freaky clowns on each page ruin this book.I love these I Spy books, but although I don't get scared by clowns, I do wish they chose a set of cute little clowns instead.Try the Spooky House I Spy book-- so cute and fun!!

    2-0 out of 5 stars Not for me!
    For those people acquainted with I Spy books, you know that there is one item that appears on each picture page.Unfortunately, in the Fun House book, the recurring item is a pair of clown-dolls.Call me crazy, but those clowns are downright freaky and they frightened me!They are peering out at you from all sorts of the places and they gave me the creeps.I had intended to give this book as a gift to my 8-year-old son, but couldn't follow through.I just couldn't handle those clowns and didn't know how my kids would react.Again, maybe it's just me, but I can't recommend this book.Sorry if you think I'm a wimp, but if there are others like me, I wouldn't buy this book for your kids.

    Editorial Review

    This encyclopedia can make anyone feel like a scientist! Not only does it have fascinating facts on everything from atoms to zephyrs, it also shows how scientists work--describing, measuring, and asking questions about the world. Filled with detailed, sharp illustrations and eye-catching photographs, this book could keep a curious kid (or adult!) occupied for weeks. The one- and two-page entries are thematically organized--much more useful than alphabetical entries for making connections and thinking about whole systems. Some of the best categories are "Reactions," "Materials," "Weather," "Space," and "How Living Things Work." But Read more

    5-0 out of 5 stars DK Science Encyclopedia
    This book is great.It gives many pictures and illustrations.It helped me immensely with my science class.

    4-0 out of 5 stars The Fragility of Science
    DK makes some of the world's best books for kids; that is indisputable. It's easy to nitpick, of course. The precision photography of the DK books, and the very attention to detail can render the technology information obsolete fairly rapidly. But for the here and now, DK books have no rival. However, they may well not last beyond the now. Here's my pet peeve with this particular book: It is so big and heavy, that if your kids love this book as much as mine do, the cover will quickly separate from the book, leaving the whole thing vulnerable to unravelling. We've lost our contents and index already, now we're losing our science history pages! I'm so sad about this! This book literally falls apart under its own weight, when handled by children. I will attempt a hold-together fix with some duct tape, but I'm not sure how long that will last.This book is such an incredible resource, and kids will spend hours reading it to themselves or dragging it over to you for an explanation of this or that, but its construction is not sufficiently strong for its weight and target age level. A tough paperback binding would have been a far better thing. Kids need strong, strong books. If you want to keep this book in spiffy condition, then by all means put it up on a shelf, defeat the purpose of buying it in the first place, and then your kids can sell it on e-bay in 50 years or so as an antique curiosity. If you're some hyper-organized size-5 perfect freak of nature, you can keep it on your special shelf of fragile books that you personally take down and read to your children for 25 minutes every day after Yoga, and then you can do the same for your grandchildren, if your kids ever let you see them. If you let this book just get enjoyed and learned from freely, you can expect that a: Your kids will love it and learn a lot, and b: The book won't last two years, unless you only have girls, who tend to be less destructive little beasts. I don't think girls will attempt to place this book as a bridge between couch and coffee table, then jump on it. Boys might. Punks.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Every Home Should Have This Book
    and I truly mean this. For adults, adolesents and kids as young as two years old, this is a great resource and highly enjoyable book for all ages. My 3 year old LOVES it, my 5 year old LOVES it, and when flipping through it with them together as a bedtime book, I almost always wind up reading and adding to my own knowledge-base myself. This is a book that you would expect to retail for $50 and at this Amazon price, it is a real deal. ... Read more

    5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book on nature for all ages
    Primarily bought as a gift for my 5 yr old nephew, I spent a considerable amount of time pouring over this book. A neat thing about this book is the wealth of information coupled with attractive, colorful pictures opening up the world of nature.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Rekindling Our Respect for Nature!
    This book has succeeded in describing the great diversity of life on earth in such an interesting way with colorful photographs and new information that one can't help but stand in awe of our great planet.The chapters discuss : How living things work,ecology, classification, plants and animals. I was afraid that the animal section in this book would be a repetition ofDK's Animal Encyclopedia, but thankfully it wasn't, I found new information everytime. For those who are not familiar with DK's encyclopedias one should know that the superior photography and layout of these books really captivate children's attention and fascination with this world.

    5-0 out of 5 stars love of nature grows the more we know
    I am delighted with this encyclopedia which I ordered as a present for my six year old.This handsome book has beautiful pictures and lots of information covering many aspects of nature.Attractive and accessible, it provides great rewards for the young reader whose love and respect of nature will grow as their knowledge expands. I expect it to be used in greater depth as my daughter grows older.For now, she loves to open it up and see what she finds-and becomes engaged immediately.I highly recommend it. ... Read more

    Great fun for kids, challenging for adults.Hones observation skills for all ages.

    5-0 out of 5 stars hours of fun
    Like all of the I spy books, this one offers hours and hours of fun for all ages.Some of the things to be found took days to find, which can be a bit frustrating for some people.

    5-0 out of 5 stars The best trip companion for a little kid
    This book is as exciting for kids as it is for parents.I bought our first I Spy book for a long (17 hrs) plane flight with my 3.5 year old and it really did the job of entertaining him enough.Without it the trip could have been a nightmare.I recommend it to anyone who needs to keep a child entertained and occupied for a longer period of time.

    4-0 out of 5 stars wish it were larger!
    My 3 year old loves the I Spy computer games so I got him this I spy book for letters (which he still needs help recognizing).It is a very cute book - several images for each letter and cleverly done.I just wish it were bigger so we can spend more time with it.Overall, a good buy in a small boardbook.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Great ABC book!!
    My sister in law, a Kindergarten teacher, highly recommended this book.She read it to her son all the time and she couldn't believe when he started to learn his letters.The rhyming is enjoyable to little ears and fun for parents to read, the colors are simple and bold and there is a lot of growth to this book.You can start my just reading, then naming objects as they get older.I always sing the alphabet song at the end where the entire alphabet is listed.Each letter is filled in with what it starts with.For example: dots in D, water in W, kites in K.I bought the numbers which is good too - but if you get one, the alphabet is the best!

    5-0 out of 5 stars Lots to look at!
    I spy with my little eye, a wonderful book for toddlers!

    5-0 out of 5 stars These are great books
    The Eye Spy books are great. They have pictures of different objects, for example a store window, and a riddle. You have to find the objects listed in the riddle.
    5-0 out of 5 stars Fun For The Whole Family!
    I have purchased the "I Spy" books for my daughters since they were little girls - one is now in high school and the other one is in college and they still enjoy these books. We like to have races to see who can find all of the objects first! A must have for everyone.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Keeping my 28 month old son happy and busy!
    My son really loves this book!We just got it in the mail and he loves to sit beside us and pour over the pictures.I can really see how this would be a fantastic vocabulary builder!And his memory is sharp as can be... astounding to see it in action when he reviews pages that we've already solved and goes right to the items.I'm so happy that I went ahead and bought him this book.It will probably be the first of many "I Spy" purchases!

    4-0 out of 5 stars A review of I Spy Fantasy
    We have numerous I Spy books, including Fantasy, Mystery, Treasure Hunt, and even Ultimate Challenger. I use these books as a great way to pass time. There are a bunch of great riddles in here, so take a good look inside Amazon's "Search Inside" feature to see if you can solve the first riddle (the city riddle).
    5-0 out of 5 stars We love this book!
    My son learned most of his early vocabulary from I Spy board books and he still enjoys this book at 6 years old! ... Read more

    3-0 out of 5 stars a mom in Nashville
    I got this book because my 5-year old wanted to learn more about the ancyent Egypt. The images are pretty cool, but the information and contains are randomly written (maybe this is good for older kids that already know some about the ancient Egypt culture). However, you could get a better introductory book for 10 bucks more.

    I bought this book as a gift for a bright young lady who was fascinated with the appearance of the stones themselves, but although I liked the content of the book, I was wholly unable to persuade the recipient even to peruse the text as light reading.5-0 out of 5 stars Very Educational

    5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent book
    My children (homeschooled first grader and fun-loving 3 year old) both adore this book.It includes every kind of animal your child may be interested in along with tons of facts to grow their little brains.If you have a little animal lover, you will thrill them with this encyclopedia.I am using it as our animal textbook for first grade.We have the Kingfisher Animal Encyclopedia as well, but this one is better in my opinion--it's more visually exciting and plentiful, and I prefer the way this book is arranged (by subject matter rather than alphabetically, as the Kingfisher book is).

    5-0 out of 5 stars Good, solid kids encyclopedia
    This encyclopedia is a good introduction into the animal kingdom.It does read well and the illustrations and imagery are well done.The categories make looking up animal groups a breeze.There is enough detail and close ups on the smaller animals, which really helps with understanding the animals.
    5-0 out of 5 stars My son's favorite present!!
    I bought this encyclopedia for my son's 7th birthday. It was his favorite gift, hands down. He still takes it with him everywhere. The book is full of pictures and lots of neat facts that are enough to challenge a 7year old, but concise enough that he can read them simply. The book is split up into different categories of animals: Mammals, Creepy Crawlies, Birds, Reptiles, etc. Then each category has pages for different types of that creature. For example, mammals has ocean mammals, horses, marsupials, flying mammals, etc. The pictures are wonderful, and as I said, the amount of text is just right. I am so glad I bought this. My son is happy to sit for hours on end looking at this book. I highly recommend it for any animal loving child. ... Read more

    This might be the most informative guide to the amazing world of robotics!
    5-0 out of 5 stars Great book for kids and adults who love Robots!
    First of all DK Eyewitness books are wonderful, beautiful pictures and just enough info for the beginner, makes these books my first choice all the time.I bought this book for my son and daughter along with a robot erector set so they could dabble a bit in robotics.My son has been collecting robots since he was young, the old tin wind up sort, he is hoping for Robosapien this Christmas.This book will give him more info on robotics, a science that is really growing.
