Illustrated by
Allison Black.
Kurtz describes the feces of zoo animals, emphasizing the wide variety of textures, shapes, and smells in a lighthearted yet information-oriented manner. Key features are highlighted in the main rhyming text at the top of each page, while additional information can be found in secondary prose on the bottom. The friendly, smiling zoo creatures and their dung are displayed in colorful cartoonlike images.
