About This Book
From Publishers Weekly
Browne ( Gorilla ; Willy the Wimp ) again exhibits his inimitable
dry wit, describing a less than idyllic family outing to the zoo. The
young narrator paints an amusingly bleak picture of the day's incidents:
Dad blames him when he and his brother fight during the slow,
traffic-clogged trip to the zoo; Dad and Mum insist on viewing the
boring animals first; and it seems that lunch time will never arrive.
Worse yet, through it all, their buffoonish father embarrasses them with
his relentless antics and jokes. But a lunch of burgers, fries, beans
and ice cream--and a stop at the gift shop--save the day. Browne's
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.
