[ 책 소개 ]
* A School Library Journal Best Book of the Year
* A Publishers Weekly Notable Children's Book of the Year.
에니메이션 영화로도 만들어져서 큰 인기를 끈 슈렉의 원작입니다. 입에서 불을 뿜는 초록 괴물 슈렉이 부모의 품을 떠나 세상에 나와 많은 모험을 겪은 후, 이 세상에서 가장 못생긴 공주를 만나 결혼하게 된다는 이야기입니다. Caldecott상과 Newbery상을 모두 수상한 William Steig의 그림과 이야기 줄거리 모두 재미있고 유머러스하지만, 특히 대화하는 문장들은 절묘하게 Rhyme으로 되어 있어서 큰 소리로 읽으면 신이 납니다.

Book Description
Horribly hideous Shrek leaves home and terrifies everyone he encounters in his search for his equally ugly bride.
The Washington Post
"Sure to enchant any child."
Chicago Tribune
"Monstrous Shrek spits flame, spews stench and is 'tickled' to be so repulsive. Making his way in the world, he finds a princess even uglier than he is . . . The merriment emerge[s] in each drawing, and the snappy text keeps the pace jolly as well."
Kirkus Reviews
"An original and comical reexamination of the reverse world of monsterdom."
Publisher's Weekly
No doubt about it, Shrek is the ugliest guy in town. Everywhere he goes, people and animals flee. If his hideous appearance does not immediately fell them, the smoke belching from his ears and his ``putrid blue flame'' sends even the mighty--including ``a whopper of a dragon''--packing. Yet Shrek is inordinately proud of his green knobby head and loathsome figure, and he roams the countryside having the kind of fun that only tormenting the vulnerable can provide. Hearing a witch prophesy that he will marry a princess who is even uglier than he is, Shrek is intrigued, and he sets out to find this repulsive bride. When they finally meet, the two break into heartfelt declarations of mutual admiration. (``Your horny warts, your rosy wens, / Like slimy bogs and fusty fens, / Thrill me.'') Of course, they ``got hitched as soon as possible.'' Steig's epigrammatic genius is given full rein in this engrossing and satisfying tale. The implicit promise (or threat) of a sequel--perhaps detailing the exploits of the pair's offspring--is indeed delicious to contemplate.
School Library Journal
Argh, it's Shrek, spitting flame and venting smoke, even uglier than his parents, who kick him goodbye and send him off in the world. He's off on a linear journey to find his true love, foretold by a witch after she recovers from the sight of him. In a maniacal version of the hero's quest, he finds helpers and perils along the way: a dragon, a dream, a donkey, and more. The text rolls right along, here breaking into rhyme, there into knightish talk (``You there, varlet . . . why so blithe?''), there into outright silliness (``Pheasant, peasant? What a pleasant present!'') Perfectly pleased with his hideous self, Shrek finally gains entrance to the ugly princess' castle, and after an operatic duet, the two are united, the bride carrying a cactus for a bouquet. The pictures are just as nutty as the story, blending with the text so thoroughly, sometimes echoing, sometimes expanding it, that it's hard to imagine one without the other. It's all here for Steig fans: magic, animism, chaos, self-reliance, hope, and fulfillment, and from one offbeat episode to the next, it all hangs together to make Shrek's destiny seem just right. The fast-forward movement of the story and the inventive , challenging language, full of surprises, make this especially fun to read aloud.
