Chameleons in the Garden
Being Jackson's, Doing What Jackson's Do

by Mary Lovein

This hard cover, coffee-table book is about Jackson's chameleons wild in Hawaii, which is one of the only places on the planet besides their place of origin Mt. Kenya, Africa where they can be found in natural habitat. The book contains over 160 full color photos of these amazing creatures, rarely seen by humans. There are detailed accounts of their fascinating daily lives, including courting, giving birth, hunting prey, and lots of pictures of baby chameleons.

The first-hand material has been collected by the author / photographer over a five year period of careful observations and discoveries. Mary Lovein is an artist and gallery owner, who is known for her romantic realism paintings. She brings some of this style to her writing and hercharming photographs of chameleons. It is an educational, entertaining read, perfect for libraries, schools, homes and gifts -- appropriate for all ages who are interested in nature and hidden Hawaii wildlife.

I had the privilege of working with Mary Lovein on her book, Chameleons in the Garden. It has been a labor of love for Mary. The book represents just a few of thousands of pictures that Mary has taken of Jackson's Chameleons. She is not a scientist but has learned about the lifestyle of these facinating creatures by observing them in the wild. The pictures are taken from unusual angles and are beautifully composed. --Amy Yamamoto, comment in Honolulu Star Bulletin, March 10, feature story, online edition
