Attention Zoboomafoo Fans

My 4 year old daughter loves this book. She became interested in lemurs and lorises through watching Zoboomafoo. This book gives information on a variety of lower primates that is scientific, but is presented in a manner that young children can understand and will find interesting. The photographs are excellent and each animal section is short, so you do not lose the child's attention. It does not cover every kind of animal within the larger groups, but it does give a good selection of each species. Sorry Zoboo fans, there are no Sifakas in the lemur section. However, the lemurs included are interesting and easily recognizable to young children (especially if they have seen Happy Lemur Day).
