We found this beautifully illustrated children’s book on our trip to Spain. I wish I could tell you what it’s about, but it is VERY long and all in Spanish. I made up my own story based on the illustrations: There was a quirky scientist, who loved the beauty of nature and machinery. He discovered a way to create creatures that were half machine and half nature – but not in a freaky sci-fi kind of way – in a perfect symbiosis.
We especially loved these tables of some of his creations.
We decided to create our own creatures. We played the idea of a stilt walking tiger and a gear horse:
But finally decided that a heli-phant was the best choice.
