* School Library Journal Best Book
* Kentucky Bluegrass Award
유머러스하고 해학적인 영어 동시의 대가이자 2006년에 미국에서 최초로 Children's Poet Laureate(계관시인)이 된 Jack Prelutsky의 즐거움이 가득한 Rhyme과 Caldecott 수상작가인 Peter Sis 특유의 세밀한 펜화그림이 멋진 조화를 이루는 책입니다.
동물원에서는 볼 수 없는 별난 동물이 사는 Scranimal Island로 여행을 떠나볼까요? 이 섬에는 2가지의 동물들이 합쳐지거나 심지어는 동물과 식물이 합쳐진 기기묘묘한 모양의 동물들이 살고 있습니다.
코뿔소(rhinoceros)와 장미(rose)가 합쳐진 Rhinocerose는 향기가 나네요.
시금치(spinach)와 닭(chicken)이 합쳐진 Spinachicken은 시금치 잎 같은 녹색이네요.
낙타와 복숭아가 합쳐진 Camelberta Peach, 감자와 두꺼비가 합쳐진 Potatoad, 홍관조새와 다랑어가 합쳐진 Cardinalbacore, 하마와 버섯이 합쳐진 Hippopotamushroom, 앵무새와 수달이 합쳐진 Parrotter, 브로콜리와 사자가 합쳐진 Broccolion, 바나나와 아나콘다뱀이 합쳐진 bananaconda를 비롯해서 신기하고 우스꽝스러운 동물과 식물 총 17종을 만나볼 수 있습니다.
기발함과 유머가 가득한 책입니다.
큰 사이즈의 페이퍼백입니다.

From the Publisher
So put on your pith helmet and prepare to explore a wilderness of puns and rhymes where birds, beasts, vegetables, and flowers have been mysteriously scrambled together to create creatures you've never seen beforeh - and are unlikely to meet again! Your guides - Jack Prelutsky, poet laureate of the elementary school set, and two-time Caldecott Honor artist Peter Sis - invite you to join them on an adventure you will never forget!
Publishers Weekly
The meisters of madcap are at it again. This time, Prelutsky and Sis (The Dragons Are Singing Tonight) head off on safari to Scranimal Island, an exotic spot full of odd hybrid creatures just ripe for their devious brand of silliness. Whether tracking a caravan of Camelberta Peaches ("All have humpy, bumpy backs, Stocked with water, juice, and snacks, So the creatures never need Wonder where to drink or feed"), avoiding the clutches of the dread Radishark ("Its appalling, bulbous body Is astonishingly red, And its fangs are sharp and gleaming In its huge and horrid head") or spying on the Bananaconda ("How sinuous and sly you are, How slippery, how yellow"), they scramble up a smorgasbord of flora and fauna. Prelutsky tweaks language with his characteristic glee, wedging in plenty of humor ("Poor Avocadodos, Ungainly and green, You're gone from today's Biological scene") and, as always when Si s is on board, his exquisite artistry raises the bar, adding depth to Prelutsky's light verse. Plying his trademark delicate line and crosshatching, Si s sets off the fantastic creatures against spare, expansive vistas, investing the muted ink-and-watercolor illustrations with a quizzically visionary style. A pair of brightly clad young explorers lurk at the edge of each scene, adding a droll visual grace note. All ages.
School Library Journal
Prelutsky introduces the curious inhabitants of Scranimal Island through his skillful and captivating poems. The creatures, such as the Mangorilla and Orangutangerine, are each a cross between an animal and a fruit, vegetable, or flower, and behave accordingly. For instance, "On a bump beside a road/Sits a lowly POTATOAD,/Obviously unaware/Of its own existence there./On its coarse and warty hide,/It has eyes on every side,/Eyes that fail, apparently,/To take note of what they see." S's's illustrations are a wonderful combination of the eerie and humorous (readers might be reminded of his fantastical island in Komodo! [Greenwillow, 1993]), and give children a visual clue as to the creature's elements, in case they haven't figured it out yet. (A rebus-like chart on the back cover is more explicit, illustrating "potato + toad = potatoad", etc.) Hippopotamushrooms smile benevolently from their forest floor, the Pandaffodil munches bamboo beatifically, majestic Broccolions stalk the lithe Antelopetunia. These black-line and watercolor illustrations in a light palette take up three-quarters of each spread; the verses, in large and legible black type, accompany them on a pastel-tinged antique paper background. On occasion on this island, readers may come across a creature that is a cross of two animals (no plant matter involved), such as the Ostricheetah or the Stormy Petrelephant. Though as eloquently described, they are simply not as funny as the Porcupineapple or the Avocadodos, and somehow spoil the fun. The point of nonsense, after all, is to stick to the rules-just, the wrong rules. Nevertheless, Prelutsky and S's have pulled off something great here-it is their best collaboration to date.
