Hosie's Zoo

Hosie's Zoo
pictures by Leonard Baskin
words by Tobias, Hosea, Lucretia, and Lisa Baskin

This picture book goes through the world of animals using large watercolored pictures and poetic words. The pictures depict each animal with a close up of the face to really understand each and every animal. Each page also has a poetic description of the animal that will keep any reader entertained because the poems are of many different formats; some free verse and some rhyming. Young children will enjoy looking at the pictures but may have a difficult time understand some of the large descriptive words, while older readers will enjoy the effort of the written expressive poems.


Intended Age: All Ages
