When Great-Uncle Horace brings back lost and homeless animals from his travels around the globe, it falls to Zoe, and her mum, the zoo vet, to settle them into their new home. She’s good at this, because she can understand what they say and talk to them, too. But that’s a secret. In the seventh book in the series, Snowy the polar bear has lots of birthday party ideas and is being a bit bossy! Can Zoe help the other animals understand that he just wants to have fun?
I’m liking
This book is perfect for those just getting into reading chapter books. It’s gently pitched and the inclusion of animals makes it a guaranteed winner with young readers like my six year old 😉 And who doesn’t want to talk to animals??
Things that made me go hmmmm
This is the seventh book in the Zoe series and like all of these kinds of series, it’s pretty formulaic. However, I’m clearly not the target audience and my daughter loved it 😉 (She’d give it 5/5)
The conclusion
A great book (series) for young readers.
