Product Description
by A. J. Atlas (Author), Anne Zimanski (Author)
Imagine if our pets could travel the world with us. What adventures would they have? What trouble would they get into? What friends would they make?
In the award-winning Travels with Zozo... series of illustrated children's books for ages 4-8 years old, a fun-loving family of four brings their pet bunny, Zozo, on their trips around the world, and Zozo's escapades are bound to amaze, amuse, and inspire you!
Author A.J. Atlas' extensive travel experiences in nearly fifty countries and throughout all fifty U.S. states provide firsthand insight into the settings for the books. Award-winning illustrator Anne Zimanski uses bright colors and expert digital artistry to turn the real-life places into beautifully colorful, imaginative worlds for Zozo and readers to explore. She adds an abundance of charm and heart to the culturally-diverse characters whom Zozo meets, and she packs Zozo's sweet, little, furry face full of emotion. Then, together, Atlas and Zimanski keep the pages filled with goofy gags and funny antics. So many, in fact, that rereading the stories is sure to surprise you with something new and keep you laughing.
The sixth book in the exciting, new series, Travels with Zozo...and the Deer, takes readers to meet the famous bowing deer of Japan. Zozo and her human family learn to greet these friendly creatures and benefit from their willingness to help Zozo when she loses her beloved necklace.
The search takes Zozo through the pine forests and picturesque ponds of Nara Park and past ancient architectural wonders like the Great Eastern Temple (Todai-ji) with its huge bronze status of Buddha, the beautiful Kasuga Grand Shrine, and the famous five-tiered pagoda of the Kufuki-ji Temple complex.
Zozo and her new friends are joined by whimsically illustrated locals-acrobatic tanuki, board-breaking birds, leaping frogs, and many others. The wildlife adds depth and richness (and laughs!) to the ancient town of Nara showcased in this premium full-color 32-page book.
Children and grownups alike are sure to fall in love with the "hoppity, floppity, huggable, snuggable" pet bunny, Zozo, in this beautifully-illustrated, pint-sized Japanese travel log. They will be amazed by the detailed illustrations of actual plants, animals, and landscapes of Japan while laughing at the goofy goings-on in every corner of the pages.
Bring your imagination and let Zozo be your guide to a world of amazing places!
