Reviews in Amazon.com "This book actually blew me away! This is the most integrated example of a story which is told more through the illustrations than in the actual text...It is hard to describe what this story is like and to do it justice. This book provides a lot to look at and much to talk about in the illustrations." - The Thinking Mother    "The Zoo by Suzy Lee is short on story but long on the magic of being a kid at the zoo. The immediate attraction to The Zoo is Lee's artwork. Pastels and colored pencils give texture and depth, a wonderful break from the flat images of many other children's books." - Curled Up Kids "If this doesn't make you chuckle knowingly, you don't have kids." - Book Buds Kidlit Reviews "Lee¡¯s pictures, both color and grisaille, are wonderfully detailed, patterned and angular, with much to look at with delight." - Kirkus Reviews "Wow. Wow. Wow. This is quite the mesmerizing and impressive picture book. I¡¯ll be hard-pressed to find an upcoming ?7 picture book title whose illustrations please me as much as Suzy Lee¡¯s do...I can¡¯t recommend The Zoo enough. For school libraries. For public libraries. For elementary-aged children. For high schoolers (show them this book as a fine, fine example of how art and text merge to tell a story - in this case, actually, how the art predominantly tells the story in a grand defiance of what the text says), for one-hundred-and-five-year olds, and ?most importantly ?as a treat for yourself. " - Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast "Even without the strikingly beautiful illustrations in this book, the story would still be a winner." - Library Goddesses Picture Books "Not only is it a visually stimulating lark but it also happens to be one of the more creative picture books you¡¯re likely to get your hands on this coming season." - A Fuse #8 Production "This book is so beautiful...simple, yet incredibly well defined." - For Immediate Release "...for any child who loves animals...or any parent who has temporarily misplaced a child...All in all, it's an unexpected and rewarding adventure." - Jen Robinson's Book Page "...the fact that there aren't a lot of words to the book makes for easy reading and opens the book up to a hundred and one creative interpretations." - Bloogs Blowing By
