Publisher's Note

We're sailing to
Scranimal Island,
It doesn't appear on
most maps....

Scranimal Island
is where you will find
the fragrant RHINOCEROSE,
the cunning BROCCOLIONS.
And if you are really, really lucky
and very, very quiet,
you will spot
the gentle, shy PANDAFFODIL.
(You may even hear it yawning
If the morning's just begun,
Watch its petals slowly open
To embrace the rising sun.

So put on your pith helmet and prepare to explore a wilderness of puns and rhymes where birds, beasts, vegetables, and flowers have been mysteriously scrambled together to create creatures you've never seen before -- and are unlikely to meet again! Your guides -- Jack Prelutsky, poet laureate of the elementary school set, and two-time Caldecott Honor artist Peter Sis -- invite you to join them on an adventure you will never forget!



Industry reviews
"Prolific they may be, but poet and illustrator have never done better work than this hilarious, inventive cousin to Edward Lear's nonsense botany and zoology."
Kirkus Reviews  (07/15/2002)

"the verses are witty, the complex illustrations are inspired."
New York Times Book Review  (12/22/2002)

"There's something here for just about every poetic need--for readalouds, for performances, for readalones, for reading with a flashlight at sleepovers, for taunting and amusing younger siblings. Ultimately, this is a stunning achievement--Carrollian-level poetry with art to match--that's sure to provide delights for years."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Deborah Stevenson (10/01/2002)
