Zoo Book

Nice pictures, but the text is a little funky. Would also like to see more animals included.

Introducing Children to the World of Zoo Animals

DK Publishing has joined forces with Baby Genius to create entertaining books for babies. These books combine Baby Genius' philosophy with DK's amazing photographs and designs. Baby Genius is a leading producer/publisher of classical, instrumental and vocal CDs and videos for young children. In this book, children are introduced to the world of wild and exotic animals. Fun words and full-color photographs will delight babies and hold their interest. Zoo Animals is a sturdy 16-page book that can be enjoyed for years. The photography is so good you can almost imagine reaching out and touching the page and actually feeling the leopard's fur or the petting the tiny tiger cub's fur. The photography is simply stunning. This book contains pictures of leopards catnapping, giraffes sticking their tongue out (really funny), baby elephants drinking at a water hole, Zebras smiling, turtles swimming under water, baby tigers hanging out together all in a row and a group of lemurs with stunning amber eyes. On the left side you find one animal with the name in large print. Then, on the adjacent page, you see three photographs of the animals in their natural habitat. Highly recommended for the amusement value alone. Some of my earliest childhood memories included seeing a giraffe and elephant at a zoo. This is a book babies and toddlers will enjoy and a trip to the zoo will enhance the reading experience. Also look for: Baby Animals: Colors, Numbers, Shapes Four Seasons ~The Rebecca Review
