"This is a fun, short book for the grandkids! If you
love reading to your children or grandchildren, this book will become a family
favorite quite fast. The simple wording and bright interaction of characters
makes it easy for very young readers and exciting for toddlers still listening.
Jo puts some serious thought into toddler reactions and includes those in the book. My favorite part was the last page, because my toddlers decided immediately that we needed to take a trip to the Denver Zoo. "Yay!!! I get to see the elephants!" (Okay, that part was ME not them. But they get to go too.)"

"Out And
About At The Zoo is a cute book that describes a child's memory filled trip to
the zoo. Are you heading to the zoo and you would like to tell your kids what
animals they will see there and what they might be doing? Then Out And About At
The Zoo would be a great choice. Easy to understand and easy for children to
read along with. It is filled with simple yet colorful pictures that even held
my one year old's attention!
Would also make a good gift for young readers who are just beginning to read!"

"What is your favorite
animal to see at the zoo? Author
and illustrator Jo Linsdell both describes and pictures a fun day at the zoo
that a young lad has with his mum. They
get to look at colorful parrots, tall giraffes, screaming monkeys, meat-eating
lions and tigers, striped zebras, scary crocodiles with big teeth, hopping
kangaroos, bathing hippos, and huge elephants. But how does the boy feel when it’s
time to go home? How
would you feel?
Children love to visit the
zoo. Our two boys certainly
did when they were little, and we still do even today. Jo Linsdell is a freelance writer and
artist who is originally from the United Kingdom
but now lives in Rome , Italy , with her husband and their
two young sons. The rhyming
text and colorful pictures in Out
and About at the Zoo not only
make a truly fun story for children to read or have read to them and imagine
what it’s like, but will also help to familiarize them with the different kinds
of creatures that they will discover at the zoo when they do go".

"I enlisted some help from my
daughter who turns three next month to write this review.
After reading "Out and About at the
Zoo," to her, I asked if she liked the book. Her response: "I YOVE
it." (she can't pronounce "L's" very well yet but you get the
drift).
Caitlin has summed up everything you need
to know and there's not much more to add to her comment. Jo's book
is fun with cleverly rhyming text and is brightly illustrated.
Your littlies will love "Out and About at the Zoo."
