As they travel to the zoo and then as they walk around looking at the animals, we get to observe the personalities of this family. Anthony Browne shows us through illustrations and the behaviours and reactions of the individual characters to the animals in the zoo, the intricate dynamics of a family. Each character has a different perspective to the day at the zoo. With the bombastic father who's image takes up much of the page and the quiet, long suffering image of the mother always to the back or side of the page, I kept thinking 'there's a divorce on the horizon for that family or there should be'! As I saw the images of the depressed captive animals I also kept thinking 'I hate zoos'. Review by: Fiona Browne again exhibits his inimitable dry wit. His effectively stark, magnificently realistic illustrations of the zoo animals offer a distinct contrast to his clever renditions of the supposedly human visitors to the zoo, many of whom bear an uncanny resemblance to the creatures in the cages.This book offers a very interesting twist on the traditional visit to the zoo story. The beautiful illustrations depict the visitors to the zoo as cartoon with animal like qualities (ie tails, ears, webbed feet, etc) while the depictions of the animals in the zoo are hauntingly realistic. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

This story makes people think about how animals shouldn't be kept in a zoo and how unhappy they actually are. Even though "Zoo" was a little sad I liked how Browne didn't make the family happy and perfect because it was more realistic and shows kids every family has it's problems. Also that if a kids family is like the one in the book it might help them feel a little less alone. ( )
