Class Two at the Zoo by Julia Jarman
A wonderfully funny picture book that follows "Class Two" on a trip round the zoo. They see all sorts of animal antics, but they don't notice the anaconda slipping up behind that's determined to make a meal of them. But "Class Two" are a resourceful bunch and come up with a rescue plan.
The anaconda in this meaty tale could possibly do with a makeover in the predictable behaviour departmentNot that I'd change the story one jot. There is something immensely satisfying about a snake full of children. -- The Bookseller Crow A visit to the zoo turns suddenly perilous for a rambunctious class in this bouncy cautionary tale... Just the ticket for reading prior to a class trip. -- Kirkus Reviews As a class of wide-eyed day-trippers make their way round the zoo, they fail to notice the slimy snake slithering ominously in the background. Suddenly he pounces, and devours one unsuspecting child after another. With animated illustrations, especially the snake's bulging belly as his 'dinner' wriggles inside him, there's a rising sense of suspense before the snake relinquishes his captives and slinks off to slighter another day... -- Junior
