Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Each car of a zoo-bound train contains a different number of vibrant, stylized animals; their destination is depicted in a fold-out finale. Ages 3-7. (July) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Review by Horn Book Review

A clever wordless counting book, in which ten animals ride in cars of a zoo train, suffers greatly from its conversion to a board book. The original oversized picture book easily accommodated the small train that recapitulated the numbers counted at the bottom of each spread; in the board book, the secondary train is practically microscopic, and the whole book is too complicated for its new intended audience.
