5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Zoo Animals: A Smithsonian Guide (Smithsonian Guides Series) (Paperback)
I treasure this book. It's got all the feel of a modern zoo, right down to the graphics and the discovery-type layout. The pictures are in color, reproduced on glossy pages, and the picture-to-page ratio is nearly 1.5:1. The paperback cover is folded to avoid fraying, and I love the weight of the book - not heavy, but sturdy. Definitely a must for trips.
