This book doesn't have much of a story, but it does have a fanciful menagerie of animals dressed up for a masquerade party -- and for little ones who mostly like looking at details in a book's illustrations, it'll be a hit. Lion goes to the big party dressed as an elephant, elephant disguises himself as a parrot, and so on and so on. Featuring a number of animals not often seen in picture books, such as a marmoset, a millipede, and a flamingo, this goofy (and lengthy) parade-on-paper will especially entertain kids who love dressing in costume.
