This is a good example of realistic fiction because it follows two kids as they go to the zoo and see a lot of animals. It is very realistic in that the animals do not talk and that the kids are staying behind the fences. They are also feeding the animals food that the animals would normally eat. It is a good story that kids can relate to. The plot of this story is a good example of repition. Because it is a book that helps kids learn to read, it repeats main words in the story such as "hungry", "saw", "gave", "eat", etc. As the kids walk around and see each different area with animals, they notice that the animals are hungry, so they feed them food based on what animals they are. The end throws a little twist to it, as it says they saw the lions and tigers that look hungry, but instead of telling us what they gave them, it says, "They gave us a fright! Roar!"
