    About this ebook

    MacGonegal’s Zoo is an alphabet book illustrated with Oaxacan “animalitos”, gaily colored, wildly imaginative and fanciful woodcarvings from the folk art collection of the author.

    The book begins with “A for Armadillo” and ends with “Z for Zebra”, in a zoo the likes of which has never been seen before!
