There's a Zoo in Room 22

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Barney Saltzberg. Twenty-seven alphabetically arranged poems describe an eclectic array of classroom pets including Ralph, a lab rat appointed science-fair advisor; Claude, a cat who performs acrobatics; and Tom, a turkey disguised as the school principal to escape Thanksgiving. The poems consistently rhyme, feature whimsical humor, and are illustrated with energetic cartoon-style illustrations.
