Albatros nakladatelstvi as Encyclopedia of Birds: for Young Readers
Book SynopsisLearn how to classify various birds from big-sized illustrations! We all know that there are many birds up in the sky, but did you know that there is a similarly vast number down here on the ground? The bird kingdom is weird, wonderful, vivid, and fascinating. This encyclopedia will introduce you to over a hundred of the world’s best-known birds, and it will give you a clear idea how birds are classified. You will find an attractive selection of birds of prey, parrots, penguins, songbirds, and aquatic birds from practically every corner of Planet Earth. The magnificent full-color illustrations and easy-to-read text make this book a handy guide that all preschoolers and young children will enjoy.Trade ReviewSelected for the CBC’s 2022 August Hot Off The Press Reading List"Each of these high quality, oversized “encyclopedias” provides a wealth of information about their respective topics. While they are organized unconventionally when compared to traditional encyclopedias, their topics are appealing and very accessible for youngsters: Not all of us Fly, We Live by the Waterside, Flowering Plants, Non-Flowering Plants.Each text is filled with colorful, detailed illustrations that are filled with labels, and captions. The text is sparse, however it does the job and goes a long way toward explaining the key features or importance of each creature or the flora and fauna on each two page spread. Young botanists and ornithologists will enjoy exploring the pages and learning how to classify and identify a variety of common and unique plants and birds." ―Youth Services Book Review"The writing is conversational and welcoming for young readers, but the real star of the show is the wonderful illustrations that will draw readers in and keep them turning pages. Don’t miss this one." ―Seattle Book Review"Each spread features vibrant illustrations and descriptions of all of the plants and animals shown.

Albatros nakladatelstvi as Atlas of Cats
Book SynopsisHow many cat breeds are there? Let's find out! This book belongs to all cat lovers! Did you know that some cats don't have five fingers, but six? We're not pulling your whiskers—it's true! Whether you have your own pet at home or whether you just like these adorable little rascals—read our illustrated cat atlas, which will introduce you to the most interesting, lazy, cuddly, and wild cat breeds in the world, from the common European tabby to the silky-haired Persian cat and the unusual Lykoi. And don't worry, that one over there isn’t a tiny werewolf—it just looks like one. And if you enjoy bedtime stories, don't forget to cuddle up in bed and immerse yourself in the Meow News, a newspaper that comes with the atlas. It contains many stories, interviews, and news from around the world of renowned feline celebrities, as well as lesser-known cat heroes and heroines.Trade ReviewProud holder of the California Reading Association Eureka Silver Award for 2022."When I was a kid, I wanted this kind of book. I remember specifically searching for this book, in fact, and coming up with nothing. Pretty much, I wanted a title that could systematically tell me about all the different cat breeds out there. And while I’m sure we’ve seen such somewhat similar books in the past, there’s something so nice about this flurry of fluffy facts." ―Elizabeth Bird, School Library Journal"The Atlas of Cats is a charming hardcover volume that teaches young readers about different breeds of cats, and more - how cats jump, world-record setting cats, and fascinating true-life cat stories in fun-to-read "Meow News" sections. It should be noted that The Atlas of Cats primarily focuses upon the characteristics of individual cat breeds, and isn't meant to substitute for a dedicated pet care guide. Whimsical, hand-drawn color illustrations add a vibrant touch to this delightful book; young and old cat lovers alike will enjoy paging through it from cover to cover. ―Midwest Book Review, Children's Bookwatch"I would recommend this to any child who loves cats or for those looking to discover which cat breed they want as their next pet. If you're looking for it, this book will have it. It's a unique take on educating people about the different breeds of cats and the formatting itself easily gets five stars alone." ―YA Books Central"The characteristics of twenty-five different breeds of cats is found here which include temperament, appearance, traits and history. Following each breed is a section called Meow News which illustrates a famous cat of that breed. Cat Tail language will let you know what your cat is telling you if its tail is in one of six positions. Each boldly-titled fact is accompanied by an illustration and synopsis. Brightly-colored illustrations fill the pages. The last two pages include celebrity cats, how to care for a cat and cat record holders. A fascinating and informative tribute to our feline friends." ―Youth Services Book Review"A cat lover's new favorite book! Young children and animal lovers will enjoy the adorable pictures, interesting facts, and humorous antics of the furry friends depicted in this informational text. Readers will learn about different breeds of cats ranging from their appearance to their temperament. Is a British Shorthair cuddly? What other types of cats have tabby patterns? Readers will be delighted to find answers to these questions and much more in this fantastic book. The illustrations wonderfully complement the descriptions and make this a book that children will pick up repeatedly. Younger children who are not yet able to read will enjoy the illustrations, while older elementary children will find joy in reading all about cats.” —Katie Duke, SLIS Crimson Review"Helena Haraštová and Jana Sedláčková's Atlas of Cats features appealing and fun cat drawings by Giulia Lombardo that bring to life cat stories. These explore the natural history of felines in an attractive combination that enlivens the concept of the bedtime story with a cat-centric focus. The study reveals different cat breeds that hold different temperaments and personalities, reviewing each cat's appearance, evolution over the centuries, and place in human affairs. The writing is notably evocative and lively, as in the description of the Ragdoll cat: "Despite my name, I'm a wild giant. No toy factor would produce a creature with such a silky coat and such dazzling blue eyes as mine!" Kids learning about cats will relish this fun approach." ―Donovans Literary Services "This book is so adorable! I love the attractive design and the sweet artwork. Every page is so colorful, and all the kitties are so cute! Although there is a lot of information in this book, the writing style makes it fun and interesting. Each page is broken up into smaller sections with easy-to-read paragraphs that keep your attention. There is some really good information in this book, and it is also interesting to read about the history of cats. I loved reading about the way different cat breeds were discovered or developed throughout history." ―Luminous Libro "I can not wait to get this book for our school library! Our kids will love this comic book style informative book about cats! Well done!" ―Joni H, Educator "Atlas of Cats is a fun and interesting non-fiction book for young cat lovers! The book covers many different breeds of cat and what makes them unique. There are also some fun features such as "Meow News" articles, world records and lots of funny and interesting pictures. Some of the non-fiction text features include: text boxes, diagrams, lists, legends, charts/tables, arrows, labels, bold text and headings. The fonts, pictures and random facts will definitely keep the interest of young readers. While there is a lot of text on each page and over 100 pages, I think that some children would enjoy looking at the pictures or reading this book with a friend or family member. I think this book would be best suited for children in the 8-11 range, but some younger or older kids may enjoy it as well." ―Angie k, Educator "This is an amazing book for cat lovers - I like a cat but this is for the tier of people who like a cat more than me! Tons of info for the serious enthusiast." ―Elizabeth S, Bookseller "I have always been a cat lover. I have had several cats in my life and I have loved them all so much. One of my cats was even a life saver for me. I had epilepsy and when I would have seizures my cat would run and jump on my parents and meow constantly until they came to check on me. Cat's are so amazing. They are smart, beautiful, perfect comic relief, and so sweet and sassy. If you love cats like I do then you will love this adorable book. It tells all about different kinds of cats. It does a wonderful job explaining the different cats personalities, what they look like, including different color variations, the different facial expressions and tail movements they have and the life expectancy of the cats. The illustrations are adorable and colorful. This is the perfect book for cat lovers of all ages." ―Whitney H, Reviewer"This book is absolutely adorable. Any cat lover kid will dig this up! The illustrations are adorable, the breed information is accurate along with a lot of other informative tidbits. I really enjoyed the meow news sections talking about famous cats too. I'm really excited to share this one with my kids!" ―Ipek A, Reviewer"Atlas of Cats is an excellent entertaining reference of cat breeds. The book features a huge variety of breeds, fun facts, and stories about famous cats throughout history. The illustrations are adorable and whimsical. A perfect book for a young cat lover!" ―Mara L, Reviewer"Super cute book for cat loving children!
