Facing pages show one animal-driven vehicle on the verge of colliding with another. An illustration following the inevitable "bang" (the text's only word, save a single "eeeeeeeeeeeeee") reveals the unique result of each (gentle) crash: e.g., truck tires end up around the neck of a giraffe driving a sports car. The surprise-strewn art culminates in a glorious collision with--what else?--a paint truck.
