An animal-tastic book full of funny animals and a boy with a silly granny. It is Vince's birthday and after visiting his gran, who gives him a big orange jumper, he goes to see his dad
who works at the zoo. Vince normally finds the zoo boring, but today's visit to the penguin reveals another birthday surprise. I like Zoo Boy because it is really funny and made me
laugh lots. I laughed when Vince's Gran gave him fish fingers for dinner, but forgot to cook them. She's my favourite character, she's silly and forgetful. I really liked the
song at the end of the book so I made a tune up for it (and sang it to my Mummy). I think my school friends would like to read this book, because it is funny like Roald Dahl. I think 7 and 8
year olds might like it too. I give it 5 out of 5 because it's funny and I just wanted to keep reading it. * BUY THIS BOOK AT THE GUARDIAN BOOKSHOP
