Detailed book that kids will enjoy
We are so happy with this purchase. This book goes above and beyond what I thought it was going to be. On the surface, the book is a cute story about a sweet little pet bunny. She’s on vacation in Iceland and notices the northern lights outside her window. When she goes to investigate, she meets a very nice group of horses who invite her to stay warm with them as they watch the light. Our family enjoyed the story very much, but then as we read it again and again we began to appreciate all the detailed information that each page has to offer about the stars, constellations, and animals of the north. And the explanation of the northern lights was simple, memorable, and very easy for kids (and adults ) to understand. Well done!!

Informative book, great pictures
We love a good dance party, and this one is educational to boot! My daughters (6.5 and 4.5) love this book. My oldest is very into learning about the world and this book provided plenty of new ideas for her. She had a million questions about the northern lights, and I appreciated the Author’s Note to help answer a lot of her questions. My youngest daughter just loves sweet little Zozo. She wants to read all of Zozo’s stories and is learning too (but mostly about which type of bunny she wants to add to our family—lol)!

Interesting, educational book
My 7 yo kiddo loves to read this book to his 4 yo sister. He likes learning about something real. She loves all the illustrations of the horses. They read it almost every day.

Unique children’s book
Break dancing arctic foxes and high-stepping horses keep this book as funny as it is educational. Zozo under the Night Sky is an excellent storybook for kids to learn about the northern lights, polar landscape, and animals in Iceland. Children can learn so much while enjoying a well-written story and beautifully colored illustrations. I’ve never seen another book like it. The writing is great because it teaches in a very fun way.

Good, Fun, and Very Informative
This book is one of the best books that I’ve bought recently. The explanation of the northern lights is geared to a 5 year old and easy for kids to understand. It’s well illustrated and the kids can understand a hard concept in the most fun way without being bored. It’s really good. Highly recommend.
Great learning book for young kids
The vivid illustrations bring the aurora borealis to life is an easy to understand way. My 6 year old understood immediately. My 4 year old had a few questions, but then completely got it. Kudos to A.J. Atlas for taking a difficult science concept and making it easy to digest for young kids. We highly recommend!

As a parent, I appreciate the emphasis on making the world understandable. Zozo the bunny rabbit helps to foster imagination, curiosity, and awareness of the world around us. In this story about dancing horses and goofy arctic foxes, the science behind the creation of the aurora borealis is easy to understand. Highly recommended for both children and parents.
