Verleger: "Breathtaking and as
grandly sized as the countryside and wildlife it captures, every outstanding page in this collection of
photographs will leave you completely awestruck by the magnificence of nature. Beginning with the African
environment, it first covers the changing landscape, climate, vegetation, and protected national parks and
reserves, all so crucial to animals' survival - like the lioness, head lowered and eyes gleaming, clearly on
the hunt for food, or the male bush elephant marching across the dry savanna (with Kilimanjaro looming in
the background). Truly spectacular shots show lightning streaking across stormy skies, gigantic rifts in the
earth, and glorious Victoria Falls. Then, traveling through the different African countries and regions,
they go close-up on hundreds of remarkable creatures: a beautiful leopard calmly resting, bathed in the
orange glow of the sun; a mountain gorilla playing amid foliage; the jet-black Verreaux's eagle, ready to
soar; a hippo, it's huge mouth opened wide; the elusive pygmy crocodile; a graceful spotted bushbuck; and so
many others. A richly visual and informative portrait of a continent filled with wonders."

Klappentext: "African Critters
introduces children to the vibrant wildlife of the African continent in a work of dazzling beauty instilled
with sincere respect for the dignity of its subjects. Young readers and the young at heart will by awed by
its honest portrayal of strength and daring, and will delight in the scenes of affection and tenderness
between parents and young, so reminiscent of the emotions experienced in our own lives. This exceptional
work establishes its own special niche in the children's sector, consisting exclusively of actual
photographs of African creatures portrayed in authentic wildlife conditions. The images are brought to life
in text based on the author's personal experience tracking his subjects at close range through their endless
cycles of confrontation and survival. Each chapter is devoted to a different species, as a newborn Elephant
wobbles its way into the herd, shy Leopard cubs scamper under the protective eye of their mother,
three-month-old Lions attempt to escape a herd of stampeding Buffalos, a clan of Wild Dogs joins together
for a hunt, and a variety of »itty bitty Critters« proves that the beauty of Africa comes in all shapes
and sizes. African Critters combines the entertainment value that its young readers crave with the
rich learning experience that adults seek for their children. This is a work specifically targeted for a
young audience, which treats its subjects in a mature way and strives to convey an appreciation for the
diversity and splendor inherent in all forms of life."

African Wildlife in Action A Portfolio of Superb
Photography
Synopsis: "In this 80-page portfolio,
award-winning photographer Richard du Toit focuses on the dynamic interactions of African wildlife, from
lions vying for dominance and cheetahs tackling their prey, to wild dogs preparing for their nightly hunt
and ever-opportunistic hyaenas skulking through the bush. The heat and dust of Africa come alive in moments
of high action and drama but, amid the excitement, du Toit also shares intimate moments between parents and
offspring, and details the smaller creatures as they too go about their daily life. The images are
accompanied by captions written by the photographer, who expands on the many special moments he has
experienced while photographing wildlife in action."
