Question

[edit]

I have always wondered: Are there a finite number of issues that just cycle? No kid is going to subscribe for more than a few years. --Chris Griswold () 12:30, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

=You're telling me, I noticed that pattern five years ago, and so stopped all together.

I learned that when I let the subscription lapse, resubbed and just starting receiving the same issues all over again. (I think I was 12 at the time.) And what's with Baby Animals II being listed before Baby Animals? And has the company considered making some kind of on-line version, or new editions? With the popularity of kids & computers and environmentalism, it seems like they're not tapping a big market. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.254.114.147 (talk) 19:08, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


I've bought some back issues from ebay and noticed they change the pictures, I wonder how many versions are out there? Seems like it would make more sense to list all the titles and put the volume info afterward and indicate if there was a cover change or what not.

It says on the web page's FAQ that there are 58 titles. 150.37.251.34 (talk) 14:59, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I own 32 titles from the early 90s. Most people probably don't keep a children's magazine subscription for more than two or three years (kids "outgrow" them or grow bored with them eventually), so they can easily recycle old titles. Kids who once read Zoobooks will eventually move on to more mature things, like National Geographic. Bob the WikipediaN (talkcontribs) 18:36, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Months unaccounted for

[edit]

Just thought I would make a list of months unaccounted for as of today.

All of 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2012

  • March, May-December 2016
  • March, May, July, October 2015
  • February, May, July, August, November 2014
  • Jan, Feb, May, July, Nov, Dec 2013
  • March, April, Nov, Dec 2011
  • Jan-April, June, Sept, Oct 2010
  • Jan, April, May 2009

A possible duplication of Nov 2010 as Night Animals and Parrots? Feb 2011 Birds of Prey and Orangutans? July 2011 Wild Horses and Big Cats?

I will resume with 2008-1980 later if no one else does first. Rhetoricalray (talk) 00:02, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
