At the young narrator's urging, her grandmother joins her at an after-hours zoo party and has a blast. Readers who surrender to this fantasy--no wondering why the girl and granny are the only humans at the party, or how the girl learned of it--will find much to enjoy in the snappy rhymes and images of the ample-figured yet sprightly granny cutting a rug.
