Arh!!! So cute

I loved, loved, loved this book. This is the first book by this author I have read or listened to but it most defiantly won't be the last, in fact before it even finished I was looking to see if there were anymore in the series, I loved it that much. The whole unusual setting of being based around a zoo was just delightful. I fell in love with the Koala (is it wrong to stay I want one?) The animal antics was so much fun, especially the tv segments and mishaps, it's worth getting the book just to be entertained by them. The fun animal fact was interesting too.As well as the great animals, I also liked the humans and the varied personalities, they worked well together. Even the mother daughter relationship, although strange (and I would find annoying) some how works and you know they care for each other. There is a number of characters and a lot going on in this story and at first I did get a bit confused but soon had them all straightened out especially as the author also gives you the name of the character and the animals they take care of.The mystery was also good and kept me guessing. Just a fun mystery that you don't want to miss.
Teddy is woken up by hanging on her house boat but it is not the playful marine animal like normal, instead of is fellow zoo keeper Kate. Teddy is assigned her zoo duties that of taking care of the animals down under, especially the Koalas but it is the tv appearances with live animals that cause her the most distress. Then her ex boyfriend is arrested for the murder and Teddy believes they have the wrong man. While out fin fund raising for the endangered rhinos Teddy can't help but investigate Kate's background in the hopes of finding some clues that lead to the killer. Things get more complicated when a second body is found and then somebody starts to target Teddy herself. Can Teddy unmask the killer or will she end up on the endangered list herself?
I liked the narrator. She had to do a number of accents for all the different characters involved in the story but it help helped to bring the fun and action to life.
