Officer Judy Hopps is on an exciting case in Zootopia. Her day started out like any other, until she stumbled across a crying elephant who was missing his Jumbo-pop. Hand-in-hand, the two retraced his steps and followed clues across the city. Will this whirlwind tour lead them to the Jumbo-pop before it melts?

Walter Elias “Walt” Disney (December 5, 1901 – December 15, 1966) was an American film producer, director, screenwriter, voice actor, animator, entrepreneur, entertainer, international icon, and philanthropist. Disney is famous for his influence in the field of entertainment during the 20th century. As the co-founder (with his brother Roy O. Disney) of Walt Disney Productions, Disney became one of the best-known motion picture producers in the world. The corporation he co-founded, now known as The Walt Disney Company, today has annual revenues of approximately U.S. $35 billion.
Disney is particularly noted for being a film producer and a popular showman, as well as an innovator in animation and theme park design. He and his staff created some of the world's most famous fictional characters including Mickey Mouse, a character for which Disney himself was the original voice. He has been awarded four honorary Academy Awards and has won twenty-two competitive Academy Awards out of fifty-nine nominations, including a record four in one year, giving him more awards and nominations than any other individual. He also won seven Emmy Awards. He is the namesake for Disneyland and Walt Disney World Resort theme parks in the United States, as well as the international resorts Tokyo Disney, Disneyland Paris, and Disneyland Hong Kong.
Disney died of lung cancer in Burbank, California, on December 15, 1966. The following year, construction began on Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. His brother Roy Disney inaugurated the Magic Kingdom on October 1, 1971.
The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) (commonly referred to as Disney) is the largest media and entertainment conglomerate in the world in terms of revenue. Founded on October 16, 1923, by brothers Walt Disney and Roy Disney as the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, the company was reincorporated as Walt Disney Productions in 1929. Walt Disney Productions established itself as a leader in the American animation industry before diversifying into live-action film production, television, and travel. Taking on its current name in 1986, The Walt Disney Company expanded its existing operations and also started divisions focused upon theatre, radio, publishing, and online media. In addition, it has created new divisions of the company in order to market more mature content than it typically associates with its flagship family-oriented brands.
The company is best known for the products of its film studio, the Walt Disney Motion Pictures Group, today one of the largest and best-known studios in Hollywood. Disney also owns and operates the ABC broadcast television network; cable television networks such as Disney Channel, ESPN, and ABC Family; publishing, merchandising, and theatre divisions; and owns and licenses 11 theme parks around the world. On January 23, 2006, it was announced that Disney would purchase Pixar in an all-stock transaction worth $7.4 billion. The deal was finalized on May 5. On December 31, 2009, Disney Company acquired the Marvel Entertainment, Inc. for $4.24 billion. The company has been a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average since May 6, 1991. An early and well-known cartoon creation of the company, Mickey Mouse, is the official mascot of The Walt Disney Company.
I’m an adult, but I think this is a cute story for really little kids.
The artwork is vivid and well-done. The plot is very very lame, but I definitely am not the audience the book is for. The readers who would most appreciate this plot are very young children, perhaps pre-kindergarten. The journey of discovery Judy goes on to find a jumbo-pop looks very much like a tour of Disneyland. Hmmmm.
Read for my daughter’s bedtime. An elephant ate his pop but forgot about it. He thought it was stolen so Officer Hopp went on a mystery chase. They retraced the elephant’s footsteps and found where he ate it. An adventure read.
I only read this to get the “Page to Screen” achievement for the Kindle Spring Challenge. It was a super quick read and it was included in the Kindle Unlimited library.
I picked this up for a book to screen Kindle challenge read. Am I too old to read it? Probably. Did I read it to one of my kids so that I don't feel as silly? Most definitely.
Perfect for the 4-9 age range. Simple wording, colorful illustrations.
The story follows Judy Hopps of Zootopia as she helps a forgetful elephant locate his lost popsicle. Overall story was a great companion to the feature film. Judy's essence captured.
I only read this because it qualified for the latest mystery reveal for the Kindle Spring Challenge (page to screen), was short, and available on KU.
I blame my childhood involvement in the Pizza Hut Book It! program for why I am the way that I am when it comes to reading challenges. There might not be a free personal pan pizza at the end of this challenge, but glory is forever.
Although I generally do not read short books meant for younger readers (short of those that are based on fairy tales or that I will read to a younger person) I discovered this book being around 40 pages that I found on Kindle Unlimited qualified for the present Kindle reading challenge so I decided to go for it. Being a fan of Disney in general I already knew the story of Zootopia that the story and the simple panel to panel guide made it easy to follow the story even for those that may get distracted by the super deformed Officer Hopps as she helps a citizen of the city in the mystery of his missing treat. Don't expect a complicated story being a children's book but as the case plays out the unique art style used to represent the cast is pleasant and the story is wholesome (especially since they point out Judy just wants to make the world a better place.) :)
This book is a cute little side story that has a nice plot related to the actual movie Zootopia. Seriously, the illustrations in this book are phenomenal! They have great colors and style that do the characters and the setting in the book a wonderful justice! They are incredibly comparable to the movie which I think is great to draw students attention to it.
It's a cute story following Judy Hopps on a day of duty, finding a missing Jumbo Pop dropped by a young elephant named Ernie.
This would make for an amazing book for kids learning to read with mostly simple words and only a few they'd have to ask for help with. The artwork is adorable!
Is it a thrilling amazingly written book? No. But it's Zootopia and my kid is into Zootopia now, so they really liked it. The worst part about the book is how tiny some of the font is.
Awww this book is so cute and no matter how old you are you're going to enjoy this book... There's a lot of double tapping especially on a Kindle but it didn't stop me from reading this. I ended up reading this for one of the Kindle challenges
I enjoyed this short story of Zootopia. I loved the movie, so seeing some of the characters repeat themselves in this book was exciting to see. Cute quick story of solving what happened to the popsicle.
This truly gets the fill of the amazing city life of zootopia showed in the movie that really gets the little excitement up has you read them the story.
The story did not seem appropriate for little kids. Its was cute and all, but I would not buy it for me grand children. It was oddly appealing for eight to nine-year-old kids.
Reunite with the characters from Zootopia as Judy Hopps takes on the case of the missing jumbo-pop. Honestly I'm not the target age group, but I found the story cute if a little flat. Cute illustrations and familiar faces were the big draw for me.
I think kids will like this story. There's some cuteness to it, but I just didn't find it to be a compelling children's story. I see it as a one and done story...not one that my kids would want to read over and over again.
This was cute, it was a Kindle challenge, and this was the only one I could find for the challenge that was kindle unlimited. I think this is something that I could put into my library as it was easy to read and the pictures were cute.
This was a very cute story to read to a youngster. In a fun way it teaches what an officer does. And shows children that they help any and all. Was fun reading this book to a child.
