Backyard Zoo (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781665312103)

A book that parents and grandparents will love sharing with children of any age.

When you hear the word "zoo," you may picture a large park filled with wild animals. But what if the zoo is right outside your door?

Backyard Zoo is an interactive children's picture book that turns backyard wildlife into a fun guessing game. On each page, children are invited to fill in the blank, identify the animal, and check their answers in the answer key at the back of the book. From birds and butterflies to nighttime visitors, young readers learn to observe closely and discover the animals living in their own neighborhoods.

Perfect for ages 5-9, this nature book for kids encourages outdoor exploration, early science learning, and hands-on engagement. The final page invites children to draw their favorite animal, making this both an activity book and a wildlife story in one.

Teena Stern is also the author of Let's Dance, Putt the Magnificent, and A Cat Called Narcie.
