9Discover the magic of fun, immersive, multi-sensory, early language learning--right when it matters most, ages 0-5--in this talking book that features native speakers pronouncing zoo animal words in Mandarin Chinese. A little boy spends the day at the zoo with his mommy and inseparable bunny sidekick...but wait! Something funny is going on here! Will mommy catch on? Or will it remain a little boy's (and his bunny's) secret forever? State-of-the-art paper electronics allow kids to simply touch the images on the paper of an otherwise normal-looking-book and hear words spoken by native speakers. The magic is enhanced with beautiful art, real animal sounds verified by the San Francisco Zoo, and 12 unique, original, toe-tapping tunes produced by Grammy winning sensation Jesse Lewis! Part of TA-DA!'s award-winning, internationally bestselling Language Adventures series, A FUNNY DAY AT THE ZOO weaves culture, storytelling through art, music, sound and imagination to bring languages to your youngest learners, creating a strong foundation and a lifelong love of languages and culture. The Xiguan Elementary School in Yantai, China, validated the Mandarin vocabulary in this book. Vocabulary words are printed in both Pinyin and simplified Chinese characters. THIS BOOK TALKS! LEARN
