The View At The Zoo
Read Free Books and Download eBooks

A new format for this humorous twist on a visit to the zoo. As morning dawns, the zookeeper makes his rounds, exhorting the animals to wake up, comb their hair, and stand up straight. Soon their human visitors arrive, and the observations begin to flow: My, what silly things they do, all these creatures at the zoo. Walking on all kinds of feet, dancing to an inner beat. Babies riding on their backs, on their bellies, snug in sacks. Hear the silly sounds they speak, as they howl and squawk and shriek! But just who is talking about whom? With a clever twist of text and bright and festive illustrations, this picture book will have children begging for a trip to the zoo. Ages 4 to 8.

This is the latest children's book from one of our favorite authors. My 2 and 4 year old love zoo books such as "Good Night Gorilla" so we were very excited to read Ms Bostrom's zoo story. My two boys loved saying hello to the animals as we took a trip around the zoo.I have no doubt we will memorize this book soon! A must buy for all animal lovers!

My students all thought this book was so funny... we used it a supplemental book to the others we were reading (sitting in my box and animal strike at the zoo), but it can stand on its own. Students love looking for the monkey! Great pictures!

This is such a wonderfully illustrated book! The storyline is cute and simply wonderful for kids to look through. Its perfect for my two year old niece who is learning how to identify animals and colors. This book also is perfect for older kids because there are so many things to look at and discover on each page. I do wish they sold the hardcover edition of this book on , but as soon as they do I'm buying another copy.

How do animals wake up every morning at the zoo? Do they have alarm clocks? No, not at all. What these animals have is a feisty caretaker who wakes up all the sleepy critters with a yelp. People and animals look at each other with curious observations. Families visiting at the zoo, smiling and having fun. This wonderful rhyming story has a great twist about visiting a zoo from the visitors and animals point of view. The silly illustrations fill the pages with lots of fun characters. Kids and parents will be able to discuss openly about what they see. Young readers will love talking about all the animals. Learning the names and sounds they make is fun too. This is an excellent book for any library.

My toddler loves animals.. So this book was a big hit! If you have ever taken your little one to the zoo or intend to, this is a perfect book to read afterwards! The illustrations are so bright and fun, the rhythm of the story flows so nicely that my toddler is able to read along and say the rhyming words, and it is just a cute book that introduces some really cool animals. It's Short enough to keep the attention of young ones but long enough to tell a good story and teach along the way. Highly recommend! We read it every night before bed.

The author is one of the beloved pastors at our church and even without knowing her and what an amazing person she is, I would absolutely have loved this book for my twin daughters! It is fun to read and visually appealing for both them and myself. I have given it at many baby showers and hope that they are able to share it with their children, as well. Your kids (and other's kids) will love it! : )

not realistic at all so it was not a tool I used to introduce the concept of ZOO. After there was demonstrated understanding of what a zoo was then this was a fun story to read and discuss. The pictures generated a lot of discussion.

In The View at the Zoo there’s lots to look at in Guy Francis’s bright, busy illustrations, well-suited to Kathleen Long Bostrom’s snappy, rhymed text with its clever twist ending. Fun to read again and again, looking for details (what happens to the zookeeper's hat?) and knowing the inside joke.
