Animals
This imaginative picture book discovers both familiar and exotic animals in the most common objects and events. On the left-hand pages of the book, readers are given short texts about everyday-life situations, such as a dialogue between two pilots which ends with someone screaming because of a mosquito bite. On the right-hand pages, the author introduces various animals related to the text. In between the two pages, transparent sheets add a mysterious touch to the illustrations; in some cases it seems almost like looking through a keyhole. In addition, young readers will find information about the materials that the artist used to create his animals. Thus, they can try to craft their own zoo of wonderful creatures. (6+)
