Animalia is the alphabet with a twist. In a fantasy world inhabited by familiar animals in unfamiliar situations, each of Graeme Base's illustrations features a portrait of himself as a boy. With his bright yellow and orange jumper you can't miss him - or can you?

When Horace the elephant turns eleven, he celebrates in style by inviting his exotic friends to a splendid costume party. But a mystery is afoot, for in the midst of the games, music, and revelry, someone has eaten the birthday feast.
