**My thoughts**
When I was a kid, I loved doing the hidden pictures in my monthly Highlights magazine. This is a whole book dedicated to those, with even more intricate pictures and a ton of information. Visit various exhibits in the zoo and find a bunch of objects hidden in the drawings. It's not as easy as you think it's going to be! At the same time, you get to learn some fun facts about the animals featured in each exhibit. Kids will especially love all of the poop facts! And there is an answer key in the back in case you really get stuck on finding a picture. It will keep kids busy for weeks!

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with a requested review copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
