PS
Each letter of the alphabet morphs into an animal in four panels, the last of which is hidden under a question-marked flap, ready for the reader to guess. Some are easier to deduce than others, due to shape or familiarity (U becomes uta lizard, for example). The guessing game wears thin after a few reads, but following the transformations should hold interest.
