Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Kindergarten-Grade 1 By sneaking into the zoo before it opens, a young boy witnesses 1 fearless fox stealing the zookeeper's keys. Whimsical mayhem ensues as animals are freed from their cages. Hippos play musical chairs, beavers cook up chili for lunch, and leopards trade in their round spots for squares and triangles. All returns to normal, however, with one loud shout from the zookeeper, and the young boy is deposited back outside to wait in line. Degman's giggle-inducing rhymes move this read-aloud story along: 2 sporty zebras in goggles and flippers/were snipping the walrus's whiskers with clippers./One did the combing, the other the trimming./They swept up the clippings, then all four went swimming. Kids will enjoy hearing the catchy rhymes read multiple times. Digital cartoon images, made to appear like hand-drawn ink sketches, capture the swift movement and playful mood. Overall, this a fun romp through the zoo. Richelle Roth, Boone County Public Library, KY

Review

"Degman's verse is bright--this text won the Cheerios New Author Contest--and animator Jack's digitally produced creatures, both animal and human, are pleasingly Bill Peet-esque. Crackling good fun." - Kirkus Reviews

5 out of 5 stars
Fun, quick read, light hearted and very silly! :)
We got this book in a mini paperback form in our Cheerios box as it was the winner of the Cheerios New Author Contest. The book (in English I'd give it a 5) is wonderful (in Spanish I'd probably only give it a 4 since the rhymes aren't as fun and it doesn't fit all of the time). This version, which is I think the version that is about 4x6", was free, and I wish that it didn't have the Spanish in it because the words are too crowded on the page.Anyway, about the story. It's creative! Fun! The rhymes are great! I had both my two year old and four year old totally entranced and as soon as I finished I was told , "read it again!". This is my kind of silly story. The illustrations are fun and crazy and I am definitely wondering if I should purchase the 1 Zany Zoo hardbound copy.

    Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2012

    I know it says that the age level for this book is Kindergarten to 1st Grade, but my 1-year old LOVES this book. We got it in a Cheerios box, and he loves to play with it and "read" it himself. And he hands it to me and wants me to read it over and over again. I must admit, it's one of the few books he has that I'm not tired of reading, because it's fun every time. It's unique enough to keep it interesting and the rhymes are really creative and fun. In fact, our paper version is so worn (and taped up) that I just ordered the hardback version to replace it. I'll probably keep the paperback one for my son to play with, however, so he doesn't destroy the good copy!

    I got this for my boyfriend who is a music teacher. Sometimes he reads stories in between lessons, and he said the younger grades (K-3rd) loved this story. They liked the rhymes and illustrations a lot, as well. Overall, a very good story. I also like the fact that it was offered in Spanish when it was put into the Cheerios box. Very nice work, author Lori Degman!

    1 Zany ZooThis is a wonderfully illustrated book, the first thing you see is the cover and the drawings and you cannot resist the idea presented on the cover. I have purchased this book, and then I purchased five more to give to friends who have children as well, and all of them have told me their children love the book.
