We start off making the acquaintance of Ryan, the young lad invited to spend the whole zippity day at the zoo. Mr. McGranimals takes our young friend for a tour of the Zippity-Zoo, he won't soon forget. For you see, my dear friends, this isn't any old tour, where the guide starts to talk and visitors doth snore. This zoo has a magical secret, for one hour's time you become whatever animal you choose! He discovers that our furry friends have trials and tribulations too, and that lending a helping hand (or hoof!) in any state is well worth the time it takes.

Aside from the fun story with a rhyming scheme that pushes the envelope at times while still reigning it back into shape, we have the illustrations. Each one gives you something bright and cheery to visually explore while learning about our reticulated friends of the savannas. Oh and speaking of learning, the "amazing but true" facts section at book's end makes this an educational read too!

In conclusion, another win for Mrs. Dweck AND readers too! You can always count on a well illustrated and unique story when downloading one of her titles. not to mention the learning boost from the great add ins. It's a fun read for all ages indeed....all you need is a love of animals and a healthy imagination.
