A book for all ages, offering 41 poems on animals by Josep Carner. They are illustrated with photographs of the animals themselves, which can be found in sculptures, sgraffiti, paintings and wrought-iron figures that appear all over Barcelona's facades, fountains, railings and gardens. All this makes Barcelona the European city with possibly the most extensive and complete collection of beasts within the gaze of people strolling its streets. It also includes street maps for locating them and texts that help to provide a context for the pictures.
