York: Greenwillow Books.
Saving the Baghdad Zoo was simultaneously an uplifting story and a sad story. It was wonderful to read about the success stories for some of the animals. However, it was also tragic to think about what happened to all of the animals that were missing or that died before help could arrive. I enjoyed the stories of each animal that was given a new lease on life. I especially enjoyed the pictures of the happy animals in their new habitats. I loved the story of the lions and their special relationship to the dog they grew up with. Even though the lions were starving, they did not eat their companion.
