New York / Evanston: Riddle Books / Harper & Row.. Hard cover. Very good. No dust jacket. Signed by previous owner. Inscribed by "Mommy & Daddy" to John, Christmas 1978. Edge wear does not distract from how fun this illustrated book.. 1 32 p. Illustrated black paper over boards: bewildered cartoon lion face on green w/ white front titles. Horizontal format. 9x8.5 in. Split pages creating different animals. It's an old trick, really well-done. Like on page left, a description of an elephant matches the comic artwork on the right, until a half page is turned, and a bewildered cheetah appears with elephant legs, but it's called a "Cheephant" with an odd description. Had the reader instead turned the lower right-hand page, one would see a top-heavy "Eleg" with curious legs. So there is seemingly unending fun herein, confusing maybe when families visit zoos or watch National Geographic shows.
