Laughing Zebra Books for Children
Reviews
Here are several reviews from people in the zoo world are saying about the books.
“Zooprise Party/ Fiesta Zoorpresa” is a delightful, fresh book that is taking children’s literature to a new level! It will be enjoyed in many parts of the world since it is bilingual (in both English and Spanish languages). Not only educational, this book also comes with a fun Activity book and Teacher’s Guide. Look for more in the “Laughing Zebra” series!

“Zooprise Party” is a wonderful children’s book that tells the story of an Okapi who believes that all of his animal friends at the zoo have forgotten his birthday. Author Rebekha Delgado and illustrator Joy Delgado use the story to subtly teach the reader some interesting facts about some unique animals. The best lesson of all for the children who will enjoy this book is that friends come in all shapes, colors, sizes, and backgrounds and that our friends represent some of the most important things in our lives.

Zooprise Party / Fiesta Zoorpresa grabbed the attention of our 1-3rd graders with it’s ability to entertain and teach at the same time. I’m ordering a classroom set for next year’s second grade class.

With the cute story, the animal facts, Activity Book, and Teachers Guide (separate purchase), the Delgado’s have compiled an excellent array of activities to keep children entertained and learning at the same time.

This is a very different book! I've seen some other bilingual books before, but none quite like Zooprise Fiesta. The workbook is full of fun pages for children to fill in and do - all accompanying the story and making it "come to life".

Zooprise Party by Rebekha Delgado is a book that should be on every young reader’s bookshelf, though I doubt it will stay there long because they'll be too busy reading it.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading “Zooprise Party” to my grandson. The bright clear pictures and the expressions on the faces allowed him to understand more of what was happening in the story. It is a teaching book as well as a fun story.

I thought the book Zooprise Party / Fiesta Zoorpresa was very educational and very easy to read to my three year old son.
