Overview
One of the first books in the series to focus on a general environment rather than a specific geographic location, this vividly illustrated boardbook follows a multicultural group of people during a trip to the zoo. Designed to soothe children before bedtime with rhythmic language while instilling an early appreciation for the wonders of the natural world, this book features adults and children experiencing all that the zoo has to offer and guides readers through both the passage of a single day and the four seasons.Reviews
