Z the Zealous Zoologist.
This is the zealous zoologist Z
Examining an hippopotamus’ head.
There’s no cause for alarm,
It can do you no harm,
For the creature, of course, is decidedly dead.
Z THE ZEALOUS ZOOLOGIST
About This Book
The collection arranges short rhyming vignettes around the alphabet, assigning each letter to a comical everyday character — from the amiable and industrious to the knavish and the zealous zoologist. Each entry pairs a playful poem with character traits and small scenes that gently satirize manners, moods, and social types, often with light, child-friendly humor and illustrative lines. The result is an accessible, whimsical catalog of personality sketches meant for young readers and casual perusal.
