Publisher's Synopsis
Welcome to Zoo Avenue! This colorful first book in the Zoo Avenue series introduces the whimsical town of Zoo City, which is filled with some fun and zany animal characters. But these aren't just any ordinary animals. Each character is actually a combination of two different types of animal, creating an adorably silly bunch of townsfolk indeed. You'll meet Ms. Bella the Elephant-Bee, a teacher who takes her students on a field trip to the town's amazing Ice Cream Factory. You'll ride the bus down Zoo Avenue with the bus driver, Mr. McGraff the Moose-Giraffe. Just watch out for the Fish-Lion construction crew! And at the Ice Cream Factory, you'll take a tour with Petey the Pig-Penguin, who shows the delighted kids all sorts of delicious treats, wacky contraptions, and even more mixed-up animal friends. But even this fun factory can be a dangerous place. So when the class klutz, Joey the Kangaroo-Calf, causes one accident too many, it is up to the beloved Ms. Bella to swoop in and save the day!
