This weekend at Mountain Bluff Zoo, Katy and Micah get to help prepare a new exhibit. Katy and Micah want to find out what animal will live there. The keeper knows, of course, but he isn’t telling. Instead, he gives them a challenge: to see if they can figure it out themselves, based on the habitat’s features. But they only get one guess! Can Katy and Micah figure out what animal will be arriving at its new habitat?
Brenda Scott Royce’s books, like her life, mix monkeys and mayhem. Her novels MONKEY LOVE (2006) and MONKEY STAR (2007) chronicle the misadventures of Holly Heckerling, a stand-up comedienne who befriends a monkey while juggling career and romantic entanglements. A former chimpanzee caregiver, Brenda is editor of the Los Angeles Zoo's award-winning magazine, ZOO VIEW. She has contributed to the Huffington Post and penned several episodes of the Disney Junior series, CHUGGINGTON. Brenda's children's books include two titles in the ASPCA's Pet Rescue Club series (CHAMPION'S NEW SHOES and BAILEY THE WONDER DOG) and nonfiction animal books for the Smithsonian Institution, Discovery, Animal Planet, and NatGeo Kids.
