When We Went to the Zoo

by Jan Ormerod

Book Overview

When Jan Ormerod takes a family to the zoo, they sing hi-de-hi-de-ho, the elephant is so slow. They see a pelican yawn. They laugh at an orangutan in a paper bag. But in the end, what they like best isn't a zoo animal at all. It's the simple, special sight of sparrows building a nest. The glowing illustrations make a trip to the zoo something to be remembered. Full-color illustrations.
