Ge dig ut på fågelexkursion i Muminpappans fotspår! Muminpappans fågelbok introducerar dig till skogarnas, vattnens och städernas fågelliv. Illustrationer av över 150 nordliga fågelarter samsas med fascinerande berättelser ur fåglarnas liv.
Här flaxar finkar och flugsnappare, rovfåglar seglar över öppna vidder, och sångarna surrar i säven. Hägrar stegar längs stränderna medan änder och måsar flyger över havet. Utöver artbeskrivningarna innehåller boken fakta om allt från fåglarnas evolution och märkliga beteenden till deras flyttningsfärder.
Muminpappans fågelbok kombinerar evolutionsbiologen Sanja Hakalas texter och illustratören Anni Pöyhtäris färgbilder med Tove Janssons ursprungsillustrationer och citat ur muminböckerna. Boken är översatt till svenska av biologen och författaren Annika Luther. Muminpappans fågelbok är en efterlängtad fortsättning på serien av mumininspirerade naturböcker som tidigare fokuserat på småkryp, fiskar, svampar och växter.

"en enastående vacker och uppslukande bok som väcker förundran och hänförelse. /.../ Rekommenderas varmt till alla och envar." Agneta Norrgård (läsfrämjare och bokrecensent)
Vi är omgivna av fåglar. De finns överallt – i skogen, på åkern, nära havet och mitt i städerna. Kanske ser du någon nu? Eller hör någon kvittra, om du lyssnar noga? Men vilken sorts väsen är fågeln egentligen? Och vad händer i ett fågelliv?"Vi är fåglar" är en nyfiken och vackert illustrerad faktabok. Fascinerande fakta varvas med fördjupningar om olika arters liv och egenheter. Du får till exempel veta allt om fågelägg, varför fåglarna har tusentals fjädrar över hela kroppen och vad formen på deras näbbar avslöjar. Genom bokens filmiska bildberättelser levandegörs också ett urval olika fågelarter på ett spännande sätt. Möt den lilla stjärtmesen, som vanligtvis lever i små familjeflockar och brukar turas om att sitta i mitten, där det är som varmast, när temperaturen sjunker på kvällskvisten. Eller följ på nära håll nötskrikans arbete med att bygga sitt vinterskafferi om hösten. I bokens avslutande del finns roliga aktiviteter för dig som vill lära dig ännu mer om fåglar – Börja kika! Börja lyssna! Börja kryssa! är några av rubrikerna. En inspirerade och rolig bok att ta med på utflykter och promenader året om.Kristin Lidström är illustratör och bokformgivare utbildad på HDK i Göteborg. Hon har nominerats till Augustpriset och tilldelats Elsa Beskow-plaketten, Ottilia Adelborg-priset och flera utmärkelser från Svensk Bokkonst.

Vill du veta allt om fladdermusen? Då är det här boken för dig! Det finns många gastkramande myter om fladdermöss och deras skrynkliga ansikten med stora öron, vidöppna munnar och sylvassa tänder kan se läskiga ut. En gång i tiden trodde folk till och med att de gömde sig i mörkret för att de var så fula! Men det forskarna numera vet om fladdermusen är minst lika spännande som myterna."Fladdermöss: Fakta och myter" är en bok fylld av berättarglädje om ett av världens äldsta däggdjur. Här får du bland annat veta att det finns hela 1400 olika fladdermusarter och hur det kommer sig att de kan flyga i mörker utan att krocka med träd eller väggar. Här får du också svar på hemligheter som varför fladdermössen är så ljusskygga, varför de ser ut som de gör och vad de helst äter. Genom Lina Blixts suggestiva illustrationer får du möta fladdermusen på nära håll.Bengt-Erik Engholm har skrivit många uppskattade faktaböcker. Han har skrivit om allt från snor, blod och löss till riktiga vikingar och "Från Apa till Sapiens" är översatt till tio språk.Lina Blixt är en bildskapare som framför allt arbetar med barn- och ungdomsböcker, ofta innehållande mörker, mystik och läskigheter.
