Zouzou at the Zoo
Zouzou is a funnily weird dog, with his happy face and eyes buried under his long white fur. On a visit to the zoo, he arouses the curiosity of his fellow animals... who see this big ball of fur as something else than a big, clumsy dog.
The seals spin him around like a ball, the elephant catapults him with its trunk... and here he is, attacked by a goat, tickled by the marmosets and adopted by the kangaroos! Sometimes at his own expense, Zouzou becomes the darling of the zoo!
In these burlesque pages, Shuo Hao, a young Chinese author living in Paris, continues to delight us with her humour, both tender and mischievous, in the style of Benjamin Rabier or Buster Keaton.
