Age range 9-12

We know what we see. Do we know what they see?

Did you know that most animals do not recognise the colour red? Did you know that a bird, which may seem uninterestingly black to you, can appear in the most beautiful colours to members of its own species?

Have you ever wondered how animals perceive the world around us? Whether they see the same colours we see? Whether the vision of a fish is blurry underwater like ours? Or whether dogs like to watch TV, or if cats really can see in the dark?

If you have ever wished you could ask the animals themselves, don't worry, because the book you are holding in your hands, How Do Animals See?, holds the answers to these questions and many more.

About the Author

Marie Kotasova Adamkova has always loved nature and literature. Having graduated from the Faculty of Science of Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic, she obtained a Master's degree in environmental and evolutionary biology and PhD in zoology. In her precious moments of free time, when she isn't working on specialist publications, she relaxes by writing children's books.

Tomas Kopecky, male of the Hominidae family who as a child mastered simple tools, such as pencil and paper, for the transmission and storage of information. In the course of his development, this male kept abreast of advances in technology as he learned to use complicated digital technologies for his purposes. His artistic accompaniments to many products have become the main source of subsistence for his whole tribe.
