xFind out what goes on behind the scenes at a zoo in this illustrated nonfiction story by zookeeper and TikTok sensation Jawnie Payne.
This gentle story is a perfect gift for kids who love animals or are going on a trip to the zoo.

Along the way readers will discover how the creatures are fed and kept entertained, as well as what goes on once the zoo shuts for the day! Stunning illustrations by Susan Deming bring the world of a zoo to life-from the big cat enclosure to the penguin pool-with plenty of things to spot in the illustrations for eagle-eyed readers.
