Book review: "Put Me in the Zoo" by Robert Lopshire

"Put Me in the Zoo" is a classic for the family reading shelf. It is excellent for reading aloud to babies and pre-schoolers, and great for a beginning reader, too.

My wife and I read this book to our kids many, many times. There are several reasons for its appeal. It has a pleasant rhythm when read aloud. The story is simple and easy to follow. The pictures are bright, colorful and fanciful.
