Cons Seventeen pages in every issue
Recommended it? Yes

The first time I saw one of the enticing commercials for Zoobooks I placed a call to the toll-free number for the free sample issue to explore further with my oldest son who at the time was no more than four years of age. We lucked out with that issue, as the theme was Elephants. I am not sure if... Read full review »

Pros Entertaining and educational magazine for the child who loves animals and nature.
Cons None.
Recommended it? Yes

After years of doing home daycare, I currently am doing before and after school care. That means that my kids are older now, and it is becoming more of a challenge to purchase items they will like. It seems that all they want to do is play Game Boy! I limit that to 30 minutes a day (I have a total... Read full review »

My 6 year old daughter, Amanda, has already proclaimed that she wants to be a Vetinarian when she grows up. I have seen the care and love she gives to all her stuffed plush as well as live kittens and puppies and feel that she is making a wise choice.

Because of her love with animals, I... Read full review »

Recommended it? No



A few weeks ago, I got an offer in the mail about Zoobooks Magazine. We already get Your Big Backyard Magazine and really love it, so I figured what the heck and signed up for 12 (1 a month) issues for $22.95.

We got our first issue a few days ago, and it was about turtles,... Read full review »

My son has been receiving zoobooks for about 4 years. His grandmother purchased them for him as a gift. These are one of the best informational magazines I have seen.

Pros Your kids (and you) can';t help but learn about all kinds of creatures.
Cons Only comes once a month!
Recommended it? Yes

My son, like any other child, thinks it?s super cool to get mail. When we walk down to the mailbox and check the mail, his first question is ?Anything for me??. If there?s an interesting piece of junk mail I used to be able to con him into thinking it was his, but now that he can read, he isn?t... Read full review »

These quickly became the families favorite books, outdoing Dr. Sues and famous fairy tales such as Puss in Boots, Cinderella, and The Emperors New Clothes. Filled with beautiful pictures and interesting facts, I'm excited to share... Read full review »

My little sister (who's 12) has been reading Zoobooks since she was 8. She, unlike me, is not a big reader, but loves Zoobooks and looks forward to getting them in the mail each month. She's a big animal person, so these are perfect for her.
