Soar with swallows and butterflies, swim with fish and frogs, and walk alongside elephants and camels. This bilingual children's book introduces kids to the Chinese language through a visit to the zoo.

Lavishly illustrated with Chinese ink paintings from renowned artist Liang Peilong, this immersive adventure is beautiful and fun, while also encouraging learning through the lens of a new culture and language.

Through this story, children can learn Chinese and more about the animal friends that populate the pages of I Have a Zoo.
