Description: Between the time the crowds leave the zoo and the zookeeper makes her rounds, the animals come out for a rousing game of basketball.
Brief description: Author Sherryn Craig says that writing is like exercise-it's important to stretch the creative muscles daily. A family love for basketball combined with a trip to their local zoo provided the inspiration for her debut picture book, Midnight Madness at the Zoo. Sherryn lives in Virginia with her husband and two children. Visit her website: www.sherryncraig.com.
Review Quotes: "Craig's sturdy rhymes are faithful to the rhythm she establishes, and the occasional use of basketball jargon (defined in a glossary, included along with supplemental activity suggestions) adds welcome dashes of irreverence. - Publishers Weekly
