Summary: not really a children's book
Comment: I agree with the previous reviewer in that the book seems a bit too sophisticated for a child to enjoy on his/her own. I bought it so I could read it to my 4 year old daughter. She loves books & is starting to read on her own. She was more interested in the poems than the illustrations. The colours arent bright enough for a child to be able to pick out all the details. I did like the language that the poems use, they flow well & the rhymes work well too.

Summary: Interesting Surreal Art & Amusing Poems
Comment: ISBN: 1886910472. As a collector of children's illustrated books, I always keep an eye out for books that feature interesting and unusual artwork. Well, CARNIVAL OF THE ANIMALS definitely fits the bill for me since it offers some amusing and quirkly pictures to go along with the absurd poetry. Piet Grobler is an artist from South Africa, and this appears to be his first book offered in the United States. (He has another book coming out in September according to Amazon.com, DOCTOR ME DI CIN.) My only complaint is that I wish the illustrations were reproduced a little larger so you could enjoy the details more. This book is probably more for the collectors of children's books rather than children, although kids might enjoy some of the poems. Overall, a nice addition to my collection.
