It is nighttime at the zoo and the
monkey lulls the zoo keepers to
sleep. The animals from A to Z are
free to marimba, tango, and shimmy.
They eat their fill of flan and
chocolate cake. The expressions on the
varied animals' faces show their
excitement and pleasure at this party
and
children are sure to enjoy the activity
and energy. Included in
the back of this book is a translation
and pronunciation guide for the Spanish
words. Colorful illustrations by Doug
Cushman are rendered in pen, ink,
watercolor, and colored pencil.
