Don't Feed the Boy

Don't Feed the Boy by Irene Latham
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Whit knows about the zoo because his life is the zoo. He lives at the zoo that his parents run and even though they love the zoo, he does not. He is homeschooled by a private tutor so he never leaves the zoo. When he's given a summer assignment to study a species in the zoo, he chooses a girl that frequents the zoo often. Bird Girl, he eventually learns, chooses to escape to the zoo when Whit is trying to escape from the zoo. The two become friends and learn that life is not perfect on either side of the fence.
