Something strange is happening at the Clarksville City Zoo. Late at night, monkeys are scaling the walls and searching the neighborhood—but what are they looking for? Noah, his sister Megan, and their best friends, Richie and Ella, live next door to the zoo. Megan is the first to notice the puzzling behavior of some of the animals. One day Megan disappears, and her brother and their friends realize it's up to them to find her. Their only choice is to follow a series of clues and sneak into the zoo. But once inside, they discover there's much more to the Clarksville City Zoo than they could ever have guessed... The author originally had the idea for The Secret Zoo when he was nine and wondered what would happen if zoo exhibits had secret doors that allowed kids to go inside—and the animals to come outside. He brings that sense of adventure and excitement to this story, making it a favorite for home and classroom reading along with such middle grade fantasy favorites as The One and Only Ivan. Review: It improves my daughter reading skills. - The Secret Zoo by Bryan Chick is a wonderfully imaginative book that instantly draws young readers in. The story is full of adventure, mystery, and heart, and the animal characters make it especially exciting for kids. The writing is easy to follow while still being captivating, and the beautiful cover art perfectly reflects the magic inside. This book is great for independent readers or for reading together as a family. It encourages curiosity, imagination, and a love for reading. Highly recommended for children who enjoy adventure stories and animals! Review: Daughter Loves This Book!! - My daughter has to start reading chapter books in school so I wanted to get her prepared and bought a bunch of different books to read. This was one of them. With the others, I've had to remind her to read X amount of pages for her reading log, but I don't have to with this book! She loves it so much that she's been asking me or telling me that she's gonna read it, and she's been reading it for longer periods of time. She has been so excited to tell me all about what she read when she's done. So this seems to be a really good book for little kids when they start reading more challenging books! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,061 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #12 in Children's Mystery, Detective, & Spy #84 in Children's Action & Adventure Books (Books) #94 in Children's Friendship Books | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 6,062 Reviews | ## Images ![The Secret Zoo - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61p2PFYSp9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It improves my daughter reading skills. *by A***N on January 7, 2026* The Secret Zoo by Bryan Chick is a wonderfully imaginative book that instantly draws young readers in.
