Are You Dissing Me?

A hippo worries that her MFA is totally useless. A cardinal has roommate problems. A hummingbird is eager to join a social network. A bush baby teeters on the edge (You wanna throw down?! ) Here for the first time are the inner­most thoughts of our furry and feathered friends, who-it is finally revealed-hilariously share the same anxieties, frustrations, and preoccupations as we do. Whether it's a raccoon fretting about his judgmental friends, a buffalo impatiently waiting for his dumplings, or a sloth contemplat­ing a career in stand-up comedy, each colourfully illustrated critter captures a moment of modern flux-and together they create an irresistibly funny portrait of a kingdom both wild and amusingly familiar.
