Nice little story about Edward the Emu who isn't happy being an emu and decides to try out being the rest of the animals in the zoo. Nice little message about being happy with yourself.

By the cover and the title I did not think that I would interested in this at all. However, I love this book! This is great for introducing animals and what they do/say during the day at the zoo and of course getting to talk about a not-normally-famous animal the emu. I loved it and will have to look for a copy of our own. The cadence of the words was great and elegant to read aloud much as The Night Before Christmas is to me. Definitely recommended.
