Something's Amiss at the Zoo

Published by Lothian Children's, 2016

Two zookeepers just can’t figure out what’s wrong at the zoo. The spider monkey won’t spin a web, the tiger shark doesn’t seem comfortable in the jungle enclosure, and the elephant beetle is in danger of being crushed by the other elephants.

Only one kid can set the zoo straight, but one mystery remains: how did these two ever manage to pass zookeeper school?
