A variety of animals are represented--some will be comfortably familiar (elephant, hippo, chimp); others are of interest because of their strangeness (four-eyed fish, blue-footed booby). Jenkins' handsome paper-cut collages are both lovely and anatomically informative, and their white background helps emphasize the particular feature, be it the bush baby's lustrous, liquid-brown eyes or the skunk's fuzzy tail. This is a striking, thoughtfully created book with intriguing facts made more memorable through dynamic art. In Simplified Chinese characters. ( the Randolph Cadecott Medal)
