Steve Harpster. Sterling, $7.95 (46pp) ISBN 978-0-8069-9284-6

Similarly, the paper-over-board Silly Animal Mix-Ups by Steve Harpster allows readers to assemble 9,000 different creatures by flipping the heavy card stock pages-divided into head, midriff and tail-attached with a spiral binding. One such combo: a being with a buffalo head, parrot's wings and bear feet.
