An unusual bunch in here, It's true, But if fun and silliness are What you seek, Turn the pages, take a peek...
Author William Wise and illustrator Lynn Munsinger have teamed up to bring an exotic menagerie to life. The rollicking, rhyming poems feature a wild variety of different animals, each one undeniably unique. William Wise's playful poetry is perfectly matched by Lynn Munsinger's hilarious watercolor illustrations highlighting each creature's distinct personality, from Gertrude the good agouti to Sabrina the carefree snake. Together Wise and Munsinger present young readers and listeners with this delightfully Zany Zoo, captured not in a cage but on the page!
