When you go to www.bonobokids.com to play and learn and buy tons of I’m Lucy: A Day in the Life of a Young Bonobo books, you are filled with a playful, joyful feeling. Of course, seeing Lucy makes you happy, but that music, that flowing melody…what is it? who created it? WE ALL LOVE IT! The music was written and performed by a very cool guy named Alex Reiser. We interviewed him so that we could find out as much as we could about this musical genius. Here are our questions and his answers:

(via bonobokids.com)
There are currently about 170 bonobos in zoos across the world. And, while zoos are usually great, sometimes bad things can happen at zoos. On Christmas Day, 2007, a Siberian Tiger escaped from its zoo home and attacked three people in the zoo. Which makes us wonder for the bazillionth time:
Are zoos good or are zoos bad? What do you think?
