Description
A beautiful colouring book for adults that invites readers into a vivid reimagining of the animal kingdom.
Inside, readers will discover over 50 new and original illustrations based on imaginary animal hybrids – clever mashups that feel both fantastical and strangely believable. Each creature is inspired by real-life connections found in nature, from mimicry and shared habitats to clever survival strategies shaped by evolution.
Featuring a falcon-cheetah (fusing the fastest animal in the sky with the fastest animal on land), a crocodile-jaguar (both apex predators who ambush prey with immense jaw strength) plus many more, every page celebrates thoughtful creature design, blending recognisable anatomy with imaginative twists that spark curiosity and creativity.
Pages at the back of the book share fascinating facts about the hybrids, including real-world animal traits, habitats and anatomical features that inspired these creations. Brought to life by bestselling artist Kerby Rosanes, Dream Menagerie is a stunningly complex journey through fantasy illustration, and is perfect for anyone who loves art, wildlife and the endless possibilities hidden within the natural world.
