Laughing Zebra - Books for Children

Let's take a tour!

Hop on over to Laughing Zebra - Books for Children. Here you'll find all kinds of things that take my book, "Zooprise Party / Fiesta Zoorpresa" beyond reading.

I believe that children learn better if they get the message delivered in a variety of ways. Reading is wonderful, don't get me wrong, I just believe we can add to books to make the learning process even more fun.

What child doesn't like coloring pages? We have several to choose from. We also have an email link that children can send their pictures to us and we'll post them right there for all their friends to see.

Puzzles, puzzles and more puzzles. I love puzzles of all types, don't you? Here we have jigsaw puzzles, a maze, even a memory game you can print out and play.

Crafts are an all time favorite. We have several so far to choose from. There are two kinds puppets and a mask. I love crafts, so look for more in the coming months.

We even have recipes that can go along with "Zooprise Party / Fiesta Zoorpresa." Have you ever thought about what an okapi eats? What do they like that we humans like? Carrots! Since the story is about a birthday party, we have a few carrot cake recipes for you to bake and enjoy.

Who out there likes word games? I sure do, so we have a page dedicated just to them. Right now we have a word search and flash cards in English and Spanish. I know I'll be adding more here soon.

Of course, what would a publisher's site be with out a bookstore. Here we have our books for sale at 20% off plus free shipping. Oh, and they will be autographed by the author, illustrator and translator.

Since our books come with teacher's guides, we have a page just for teachers. I have plans for this page to include links to other sites that help teachers in all they do.
