Product Description
f you shout in the zoo, anything might happen. You might scare a bear, and the apes, and the hippos, and the lions...and then they might break loose and chase after you! In this uproarious cause-and-effect story, one innocent, little shout from a young girl creates chaos among the zoo animals. Lively, detailed illustrations bring the friendly stampede of animals to life and will have readers laughing out loud!

• Another Great One! 05 August, 2006
We read to our two month old son constantly and Karma Wilson's books are our favorites. Young children love rhymes and hers are some of the best. Even better, her books are fun for the parents, too.

• I Warned You! You Can't Say I Didn't! 16 September, 2007
This is my son's (18 months) FAVORITE book and has been for some time. And we read A LOT of books!! He constantly brings it to me to read and as soon as he hears the first sentence, his whole face lights up. My daughter (age 3 going on 16) loves it as well and she is VERY curious to know what all the big words mean? (which I for one like!) They both love the repetition and beautiful artwork. They especially love the phrase "Don't say I didn't warn you," which is repeated quite often. This is a home run for Karma Wilson! Her best yet in my opinion!!

• Love Those Words! 10 August, 2007
I really loved this book. I am not a teacher just a mom that likes to read to her kids. The concept of the story is cute. I would shout if I dropped my ice cream too!! But it shows you can't just shout anywhere...especially the zoo. My boys like the "describing words". In fact I think on more than one occasion I have used..."Your a BIG BULL MOOSE WITH A BAD ATTITUDE!" Thanks Ms. Wilson for helping me find a way to get my kids out of a bad mood!

• Fun And Educational 11 January, 2005
Karma Wilson is one of the most awesome children's book authors I have encountered in a long time. There is so much to love about all her books but this one in particular gives a teacher or parent an opportunity to really go to town with adjectives. My daughter and I LOVE "describing words" and we are encouraged page by page to come up with some of our own. There is nothing better than getting the creative juices flowing with delicious words like dreadful, grouchy, conniving and malicious. A fun activity to develop from a book like this is to help your child build his or her own dictionary. Add a word or two a day and watch your child's vocabulary soar!!

• Love This Book! Great Linguistic Imagery! 18 June, 2008
This book captures the imagination of a child... I can't tell you how many conversations I have had with my own children that remind me of the narrator in this book. The author applies descriptive wording to paint a vivid image of what might happen. The words like "mischievous, dreadful, grouchy, etc" enlighten a child's vocabulary. Of course I don't want my children acting "malicious" but I do want them to know what it means when they hear or read it. It is a great way to introduce new words and talk about positive behavior. My 6 year old son loves the pictures and re-examines them each time we read this. There is a wonderful energy about this book. I can imagine reading this book to a classroom of kindergarteners with wide eyes. It is perfect for that setting! Love it!
