Oliver Herford is adept at pairing whimsical illustrations with humorous poetry, and The Mythological Zoo is no exception. Each of the 22 illustrations of classic mythological beasts is accompanied by a brief poetic verse. Medusa, Cerberus, the Chimera, the Phoenix, and the Centaur grace these pages, amongst many more. These original drawings have been clarified and intensified from their original publication.
