PREFABULOUS ANIMILES

by James Reeves ‧ RELEASE DATE: Aug. 1, 1960

Here is James Reeves at his teasing, fanciful best. A menagerie of curious animals are conjured up through the skillful manipulation of Mr. Reeves' verse. The animals are fierce, comic, bold and reticent. And in all cases they are rare and are only to be found in the imagination of those who have been exposed to the author's potent spell. Edward Ardizzone takes his cue from these superb poems and adds a visual dimension to this unique excursion into zoology. James Reeves, the author of The Blackbird in the Lilac is in the tradition of Lewis Garroll and will be read for many years to come.
