Help Us Choose a Cover Photo!

One of the fun parts of putting a magazine together is choosing the cover photo. It can often be wonderfully difficult to narrow down the choices! What do you think of these two images here for the cover of our upcoming November issue, Dolphins? We'd love to hear your artistic opinion.

Digital Sneak Peeks

We are strongly considering making a digital version of Zoobooks available on our website in advance of each month's printed issue. How does this strike you? We hope it will whet our readers' appetites, and stir up even greater anticipation for their printed issue.
