The Moonlight Zoo

The Moonlight Zoo is a story with pretty pictures throughout the book and tells a happy story. In the story, a girl is sitting in bed and missing her cat, Luna, who has been gone for the last two days. The girl starts to hear noises from under her bed and finds a zoo there! A wolf meets her and tells her that it’s the Moonlight Zoo, where lost animals go to stay safe until they are found again. The girl has until the sun comes back up to find Luna among all the other lost animals in the “zoo” before it goes away for the day. Will she find Luna and be happy again?

I enjoyed The Moonlight Zoo for several reasons – there’s a cat, pretty pictures, the story is entertaining, and the pages have little holes to “peek” through to the next. The story begins kind of sad because the girl has a lost cat but turns out happy in the end; I think that Luna ends up looking like a very happy and pretty kitty! Kids of any age will like this book because the story is good, and they can probably relate to missing or losing a pet.
