This pop-up book got huge reactions at my jungle-themed storytime today, and it was a lot of fun. The text isn't amazing, but it's fine, and the pop-ups are big, bold, and striking.

Very cool pop-up book. Unfortunately, even though this was "new" at our library, someone had been too rough with it and the hippo pop up was missing and the monkey pop-up was broken. Thank goodness there were images of all of them on the back, so we could see what we missed. It was a fun read-aloud before bed though.

Text is okay, but the pop ups are awesome and make this book worth a look.

this is a great pop-up book about animals. I find it really works for preparing kids for a visit to the zoo.

I made the little ones guess before I showed them the pop-up.
