«Zoo loco» is a children's poetry collection by María Elena Walsh, published by Santillana in hardback (64 pages, in Spanish).
It brings together short poems featuring absurd animals: a cow with a clock on its face, a canary that barks, a wolf strolling down Carabobo Street, and other unusual creatures, such as the unhappy earthworm or the old wrinkle-free tortoise. Texts full of absurd humour with illustrations by Silvia Jacoboni.
The work was originally published in 1964; this edition dates from 2001, in the Alfaguara 8 Años collection (Morada series).
Aimed at children aged 8 to 9; the poems in «Zoo loco» have left their mark on several generations of readers.
María Elena Walsh was an Argentine poet, novelist, musician, playwright, writer and composer, mainly known for her songs and books for children. Her work includes many of the most popular children's books and songs of all time in her home country.
