زوو یه مجموعه کتاب چهارجلدی از میشل گی، تصویرساز و نویسندۀ فرانسویه.
برای گروه سنی ب نوشته شده و بیش از اینکه داستانش چشم‌گیر باشه، تصویرسازی بسیار حرفه‌ای و خوب و بامزه‌اش نظر آدمو می‌گیره.
من برای فرزند 2 ساله‌ام گرفتم که خیلی زود با کتاب مانوس شده و ورق زدن کتاب‌های بدون تصویر هم یکی از لذت‌ها و حتی بازی‌هاشه. اگرچه هنوز براش زوده این کتاب‌ها، اما تصویرسازی برای منی که پیشترها طراحی می‌کردم اهمیت بسیاری داره و کتاب‌هایی که اغلب در بازار می‌بینم تصاویر دلچسبی ندارن. اما این یکی درجا نظرمو گرفت و گفتم بچه‌ام باید اینو ببینه.
این مجموعه رو انتشارات نبات چاپ کرده که مجله‌اش معروفه. چاپ کتابها بسیار خوبه و تمام صفحات گلاسه‌ست. قیمتش توی فروشگاه خودش قدری زیاده، شما از هدهد بگیرید منفعت بیشتری براتون داره تا سرتون مثل من کلاه نره. اگرچه سرجمع قیمت هرچهارتاش اندازۀ یک رمان 200 صفحه‌ای از انتشارات چشمه هم نیست و این مزیت دیگه‌شه.

Labai švelni, mieka knygelė su puikiom iliustracijim ir vos po sakinuką puslapyje! Todėl tinka patiems mažiausiems arba tik pramokusiems skaityti!

Cute book with a story line my son can relate to already. Great book to illustrate problem solving for children.

Paveikslėlių knygelė kūdikiams-darželinukams. Suskaityta iki skutų. Labai mielas pasakojimas apie Zū, norintį pažadinti savo tėvus, ir sugalvojantį gerą planą.

This is a really cute story that I would share with students when talking about problem solving and being helpful. Students need to know how to problem solve and how to be helpful in both school and life situations. I think you could definitely share this with your class and then have an open dicussion about times when your students needed to problem solve to fix a situation. As the teacher, I would give an example, first, of a time when I needed to problem solve.

Miela ir jauki knygelė mažiausiems skaitytojams su nuostabiomis iliustracijomis.

"Tuk! Tuk!
-Ar jau pabudote? - klausia Zū.
- Dar miegame, - atsako tėvai.
Kaip juos pažadinti negavus barti?"

Nors teksto nedaug, jame ir jaučiamas labai šiltas tarpusavio ryšys, ir perduodama svarbi žinutė - jeigu nepavyko vienaip, galima tai pabandyti padaryti kitaip :)

Little Zee is a very cute little zebra who loves climbing into bed with his mom and dad. One morning though, they are still asleep, and he decides to wake them with coffee...but things don't quite turn out the way he planned. Zee has good intentions, and cleans up all of his mess, but he does have quite an adventure. He does get his snuggle with Mom and Dad - and they do get their coffee. The illustrations are lovely and soft - and I love the zebra striped end pages. My storytime audience fell in love with little Zee, and when you read this book, you will soon discover why.

This book reminds me of my family. Can't tell you how often we've tried to get sleep in the mornings.
Cute pictures.

A whimsical storytime read!

I like this book because children are able to relate to it. It also teaches problem solving and focuses on serving others. Great book!

I liked that the little zebra was trying to wake his parents up in a nice way. It is a quick little book but there are many better books out there.
