ZOO ANIMALS

Published by Star Bright Books

With illustrations first published in Animal Tricks, The Owl and the Woodpecker and other stories, Zoo Animals by Brian Wildsmith introduces youngsters to 28 animals (one per page) from around the world, including polar bears, meerkats and spider monkeys. Bite-size blurbs accompany each illustration and present basic facts. ("Spider Monkeys use their tails like hands to grasp on to tree branches. Spider Monkeys live in Central and South America.") A Spanish-language edition, Los animales del zoologico, is also available.
