Odd and the Frost Giants - Neil Gaiman, Chris Riddell

'I felt my back arching up. I felt a tail pushing its way out from the base of my spine. My fingers shrank into paws and claws. It wasn't the first time I had turned into animal form - I was a horse once, you know - but it was the first time it was imposed on me from the outside, and it wasn't a nice feeling. Not a nice feeling at all.'

'It was worse for us,' said the bear. 'One moment you are fast asleep, dreaming about thunderstorms and the next you're being scrunched into a bear. They turned the Al-Father into an eagle.'
