This ingenious book uses the postures and movements of zoo animals to
teach yoga movements to children. The first part of the book covers
theoretical and practical information for parents and teachers working
with yoga. Part two takes readers to every part of the zoo, from the
insect and reptile houses to the ape cage and the oceanarium. Here
youngsters come face to face with a tiger, look in the eyes of a
giraffe, do the monkey dance, and walk as gracefully as a flamingo. Part
three introduces the rules of the yoga lifestyle through a number of
animal fables. Part four contains background information about the
animals described in the book.
