Celebrate forty years of Rod Campbell's classic lift-the-flap book, Dear Zoo, with a host of favourite zoo animals and flaps to lift on every page. 'I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet . . .' Young children will love lifting the flaps to discover the animals the zoo has sent – a monkey, a lion and even an elephant! But will they ever manage to send the perfect pet? Rod Campbell, the creator of preschool favourites including Oh Dear! and Noisy Farm, has been a trusted name in early learning for over forty years, and the perennial classic, Dear Zoo has been a firm favourite with toddlers and parents alike since its first publication in 1982. With bright, bold artwork, a catchy refrain and a whole host of favourite animals, Dear Zoo: 40th Anniversary Edition is a must for every child's bookshelf, and the thick card pages, chunky cased cover and sturdy flaps make it perfect for small hands. Look out for Rod Campbell's Look After Us, a lift-the-flap animal book for toddlers with a positive message about conservation. Review: Little zoo in your hands! - This is the very first time I am editing my review. Previously I had given four star. But this gem deserves five star. Previous review: It's really a nice book for babies who love animals. I gifted this book to my little one on his first birthday. He recognizes all the animals and loves to open flip-flaps. Book is quite sturdy too. One can make it more interesting by asking questions, illustrating more about animals. Why I edited my review: After six months of use it still keeps my toddler angaged. He still enjoys this book alot. Why are we expecting some extra ordinary stories every time? Some times simple story are enjoyable too. Review: Great buy - An amazing book for the toddlers. My 12 month old baby loves to read this one. This is his second favourite book. Highly recommended.

Read, act and emote- babies and toddlers will really like this book
I have had this book for the last two years and it has been a big hit, first with my first-born and then again with my second born. This is how we read this book: I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet- They sent me an elephant, he was too big: my toddler extends her arms They sent me a giraffe, he was to tall- she raises her both hands They sent me a lion, he was to fierce- she roars like a lion They sent me a camel, he was too grumpy- she pouts They sent me a snake, he was scary- she shudders They sent me a monkey, he was too naughty- I tickle her and she giggles They sent me a frog, he was to jumpy- she jumps They sent me a dog, he was perfect, so I kept him- together we blow a kiss... I have also gifted this book couple of times and each time it has been a big hit with the babies as well as toddlers. Would highly recommend it.
