Horrible Hairy Hogs Hurrying Homewards on Heavily Harnessed Horses, of course. Graeme Base's astonishingly creative oeuvre begins with Animalia, the 1993 alphabet book that challenges the standard idea of how long reading a book for small kids ought to take. Animalia, like many of Base's books, is a vast puzzle, built with entrancing pictures that unfold into layers and layers of objects--all matched to each page's corresponding letter. Base leaves us stunned and amazed, painting reflections into the oddest surfaces and driving the urge to page-turn. This wonderful picture book works for 2-year-olds, 5-year-olds, and adults alike--something few other alphabet books can manage. --Andrew Bartlett Accolades Dromkeen Medal Winner 1998 - Winner Kids Own Aust Literature Award (KOALA) 1994 - Shortlisted Kids Own Aust Literature Award (KOALA) 1993 - Shortlisted COOL Award 1993 - Shortlisted Kids Own Aust Literature Award (KOALA) 1988 - Winner Young Aust Best Book Award (YABBA) 1987 - Winner Picture Book CBC Book of the Year 1987 - Honour Book Picture Book About the Author Graeme Base is one of the world's leading creators of picture books.
