oh we most definitely needed a zoo, even more than a menagerie (which we don’t have but now we don’t need!)
Awesome.

Oooh, can I go to this zoo? Sounds even better than the San Diego zoo.

oh, yea, I get to hand feed a Farjamadoodle. Sweet!

I wonder if the zoo has any creatures at all, or if they live only in the imagination.

I really love where this is going, the set-up is wonderful at drawing the reader in. Wish the last line had a bit more punch considering.
