DK Publishing: BUTTERFLY Book

This giveaway is closed.

Today's featured company:
DK Publishing: Butterfly

A little more about them:
9780756633400h_2 Butterfly is a photographic portrait of the world’s butterflies. Butterfly is a celebration of the dazzling variety of colors, patterns, habitats and behavior of these insects, with breathtaking photography by Thomas Marent, author of DK’s award-winning Rainforest (September 2006).  Incredibly detailed, Butterfly visually documents each stage of the lifecycle, from the insect’s first struggle to free itself from the chrysalis and take flight, to the life-and-death dramas of courtship, reproduction and defiance.  With more than 500 photographs of butterflies and moths from around the world and engaging and informative text—including the personal stories behind many of the images—this book will open your eyes to the wonders of life on the wing.

Some examples of what they do:

What they're giving away:
Five winners will each receive their own copy of the new book Butterfly.

To leaf through Butterfly, Thomas Marent’s spectacularly vivid and richly detailed photos of the creatures he adores, is not only to exult at the symmetrical perfection of pattern and design on an extended wing but also to marvel at the caterpillar’s exquisite potential. — O Magazine

Comments

I love DK books! Skimming through the site, I found at least a dozen that I would love to have. Warrior would be my pick for hubby, and How Children Lived for my daughter.

We love DK books! The photography is gorgeous, and, by the way, we could use the Butterfly book THIS WEEK. But I don't suppose there's any way for that to happen, so I'll just move on and wish...

I would love the organic life book

My son loves gardening so, the First Garden Activity Book would be great

DK Alphabet has been used so much at our house the pages are ripped and torn! We love DK. Can't wait to see the Butterfly book in person!

How fun!!! Let's see...i really love the books:
Slice of Organic Life
Columbia University Children's Medical Guide
Mom and Me Cookbook

It is much too difficult to decide! Who wouldn't like a whole library of DK books, especially for homeschool??? :)

If I had to choose today, I would pick the book on TREES. With 500 kinds, we should be able to identify most every one we come across!

Love this giveaway!

We'd love any of the animal books - wild baby animals, jungle animals, underground animals, etc.

My daughter would LOVE the butterfly book!

My kiddos would love the DK Children's Cookbook.

I would love to get my son the All about Me or the My First bible. They have lots of good grownup books too though.

I love DK books! Thier gardening are my favs! Grow Vegetables and Plant Propigation!

I love the children's books! I like the Encyclopedia of Science.

I love this. I really want the butterfly book itself! I would also love the New Photography Manual and a whole list of Chilren's Books. I couldn't decide, so I sent the link to family for ideas for both my and my son's (first) birthday!

As we're about to have our first baby, I'd love any of the baby books, especially the first words and animals books.

The mom and me cookbook.

I am a collector of arts. Most of my pieces are butterfly themed. The book you feature stopped my breath! What a wonderful coffee table piece! The baby oriented book FARM was sweet. The Antiques Price Guide would be handy! Thanx

A Pulsating Introduction to the Human Body, and Universe A Definitive Visual Guide sounds fascinating. I loved their site by the way, they had some books every member of my family would enjoy.

My little girl would love the butterfly or the dinasaurs books. any books really, she LOVES to read. She just hit me up for 55 bucks worth at the book fair at her school this morning!

We love DK books around here too. The Star Wars books would be great for my budding Han Solo.

Wow! What a great giveaway! My daughters both love butterflies so this would be great. I think my daughters would also love the first cooking activity book, (though it is hard to choose - I also love the first dictionary, atlas and encyclopedia!)

I love DK books. There are way to many to choose from, but I would say that Eyewitness books, the Watch Me Grow series and the DK readers are among my many favorites.

I love their bird books. I gave a ton of their books away as Christmas gifts a couple years ago.

Love the top 10 Travel guide to Paris...my dream!

Wow, looking through the kids' books (ages 5-9), I realized we have a few DK books! They're awesome. My daughter's favorites are ANY of the Ultimate Sticker Books. Cool giveaway.
