Take a fresh look at the natural world with best-selling author Ben Hoare
Shapes of Nature captures the infinite variety and delicate beauty of the natural world. Taking inspiration from the world around us, we have arranged iridescent beetles, eye-popping tree frogs, knobbly sea shells, glistening crystals, fabulous fungi, and exquisite feathers into stunning artistic arrangements that are full of color and packed with detail.
These clever designs shine a light on nature’s variety with amazing clarity, they invite you to observe the differences between objects that look similar at first sight, and they reveal the intricate features that we normally overlook.
If you're looking for a gift for nature lovers and aspiring collectors ages 9 and up, this delightful and informative book is the perfect choice—a treasure to pore over again and again, and a valuable addition to any family’s bookshelf.
Ben Hoare is an editor and author of books on nature and natural history, including Eyewitness: Endangered Animals, Trees and Leaves, and Pond Life. A fellow of the Zoological Society of London, his work can also be seen published in BBC Wildlife and Birdlife magazines, and on several BBC websites.
