"The arrival of donkeys, a zebra, monkeys, and a slew of other animals upends the narrator's plans for a very serious book"-- - Baker & Taylor
The arrival of donkeys, a zebra, monkeys, and a slew of other animals upends the narrator's plans for a very serious book. - Baker & Taylor
The serious nature of a strictly black-and-white zebra and the story he imparts is belied by a sequence of silly animals who engage in any number of shenanigans, encouraging readers to imagine their own fun-filled stories. 50,000 first printing. - HARPERCOLL
This is a very serious book. Nothing silly is allowed. There are no funny faces, no clowns, and definitely no shenanigans. A serious book is always respectful, and, of course, is always in black and white. But wait! Who’s this? Zebra might be black and white, but he is NOT serious. And he and his friends are ruining the book with their antics, parades, and parties!
This funny and irreverent book that pits its narrator against its characters in a hilarious way invites reader participation and encourages kids to think about writing their own books and stories—just as donkey does here in the end. A joyful page-turner of a book that celebrates writing and creativity and will appeal to fans of The Book With No Pictures.
