Albie is sure he can identify every animal in the world because he has seen them all on TV. But he'--'s never seen the creatures of the Jumble Jungle And if he can name just one of them correctly,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is good for kids who are starting to learn about puns and fun with words. The story involves imaginary creatures such as "Kangarshoes" (kangaroos that like to steal people's shoes). I read it with my daughter, who is nine, and she had a blast trying to predict what the animals would be -- we even started making up some of our own imaginary animals afterwards.
Fun for the Young

In the tradition of "Where the Wild Things Are". this imaginative journey draws 4-7 year olds into its own unique "interactive" story right from the start when Albie meets the first of the many animals he tries to identify. The humor is contagious, and the parent who reads the story will get as much fun out of Albie's trip as the child who is read to. And not just once. After the child has heard the story more than once, and as he/she gets to be able to identify the animals, his/her excitement and enthusiasm grows. What's more, if the child has a computer available at home, he/she can earn his/her own Lifetime Membership in the Jumble Jungle. A real winner for the 4-7 year old age group.
