New at the ZooWhen a lonely, little frog arrives at the zoo, he is disappointed that all the other animals seem too busy to welcome him. As the animals rush past, he calls out, "I am new. May I play with you?" But each one tells him, "Not now. I am going to a party", and rushes past. Disappointment, however, turns to delight when the zookeeper explains that everyone is going to a party for their newest friend. "Who is your new friend?" asks the frog. "Our new friend is you", announces the entire group who shower the newcomer with gifts, decorations and cake. Bianchi's wonderful animal characters and his colorful party scene bring smiles to every child who has experienced the sense of being the new kid in class. |
