    Glad you found ZooChat. I guarantee a lot of people here will want to buy your book if and when it comes out. I too hope to write a book on Zoos of the Southwest (USA).

    Looking forward to reading more!
    May I make a couple of helpful suggestions? The pale colors of the blog and type are not the easiest for reading long passages.
    Also, a better spell check and/or grammar check would improve things.
    And why no listing of zoos? I would have liked to see others besides Georgia Aquarium and Toronto but how to find them?

    But the friendly chat is enjoyable
