About the Book
In celebration of its 20th anniversary, Steig's classic tale of the repulsive ogre is now available in this stunning jacketed hardcover edition.

Before Shrek made it big on the silver screen, there was William Steig's SHREK!, a book about an ordinary ogre who leaves his swampy childhood home to go out and see the world.
Ordinary, that is, if a foul and hideous being who ends up marrying the most stunningly ugly princess on the planet is what you consider ordinary.
