I love the art. And now I'm scared of rabbits. What's with all the carrots? What do they need such good eyesight for, anyway?

A beautiful collection of strange bunnies! I had the statue of one of them and I really enjoyed seeing the rest of the bunnies.

Insanely Twisted Rabbits is a collection of draft drawings of mutated rabbits by artist Michel Gagne. This book is a fantastic example of what happens when an artist lets his/her imagination wander while staying focused on a subject. The rabbits look to have been combined with all sorts of other creatures, from bats to rhinos to dinosaurs- and then there are just plain scary mutated rabbits with all sorts of horns, fangs, and claws that abound. As with Gagne's Frenzied Fauna, parents and librarians will want to judge the appropriateness of some of the images based on children's reactions. Some might find the images a little too scary, but others will be mesmerized by Gagne's imagination gone wild, resulting in the phrases "neat", "cool", and "awesome". Age: varies based on the child's personality and interests. Recommended.

Not really a "read" but amazing drawings. All using three colored pencils.

Just a really fun book to look through.

Just a clever creative book of rabbit designs pushed to the limits. Really inspires me to play more with character designs.
