Watch your book “magically” become 3D! This free app, used in conjunction with the printed book “The Prairie That Nature Built,” will make animals and other creatures on the pages of the book “pop-up” in 3D when viewed through your iPhone or iPad. Then touch the pop-up creatures and see what they do! See the prairie dog tunnel and the worms squirm. The prairie becomes more real when the book is seen with the help of this app, which applies Augmented Reality technology to the book.



“The Prairie That Nature Built” accurately portrays the exciting prairie habitat. Kirkus Reviews described it as “a vivid introduction to a vital habitat.” Rhythm, rhyme, and repetition reinforce the richness of dynamic prairie life.
* Forward Reviews says: “Vibrant and dynamic two-page spreads burst with life, exuberance, and authenticity in this gorgeous overview of a prairie ecosystem. The vivid word choice of the verse—constructed with deft use of repetition and rhyme—is loaded with rich imagery. That this beautiful book manages to be simple and complex simultaneously is extraordinary.”

*Jim Mason, Naturalist at the Great Plains Nature Center says: “I love this book! It combines a child’s sense of wonder with an accurate and beautifully illustrated portrayal of the prairie ecosystem. It will help kids of all ages understand the interconnectedness of the animals and plants found on the Great Plains and make them want to go experience it for themselves!”

*Buddy Huffaker, President of the Aldo Leopold Foundation says: “Here’s a great read with gorgeous illustrations for kids of all ages revealing the beauty and complexity of the prairie. You’ll learn about the plants and critters that depend upon one of the most endangered ecological systems in the world− all while having fun!”
