Customer Reviews

Excellent book for any age!

Quwi, a sly guinea pig, outwits Zorro, a malicious fox, who repeatedly tries to make a meal out of him. Zorro and Quwi is an outstanding example of quality children's literature. This book is highly entertaining for a person of any age. This story if full of action, and the illustrations are highly complimentary. It contains humor and the characters are easy to understand. A clear pattern is established in this book. The guinea pig outwits the fox repeatedly. This is helpful in following the plot. While clearly pointing out the error of the fox's ways, the vook does not become overly didactic.
