All My Animals
von Lauren NapierAn octopus swims next to a jar of ink with a quill pen. A friendly, brown grizzly bear stares from across the page at a beehive dripping with honey. A wise owl perches next to his prized spec- tacles. In All My Animals, twenty- three animals and twenty-three accessories are colorfully illustrated with attention to detail and an eye for quirky humor. The iconic vintage style of illustra- tor Dawid Ryski reimagines well- known animals into works of art reminiscent of classic posters.
Within the captivating pages of All My Animals, one page shows the animal and, on the opposite page, sits its matching accessory. These pairings invite readers to think about the distinct person- alities of a jovial cast of animal characters and to be transported to a realm where animals interact with human objects. From tigers to crocodiles to parrots, the nuances of the animal kingdom come to life in detailed portraits and humorous connections.
