Dear Zoo

What's It All About?

A new edition of Rod Campbell's classic lift-the-flap book.

I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet . . .

This classic lift-the-flap book has been a favourite with toddlers ever since it was first published in 1982. Now reissued as a sturdy casebound board book, perfect for little hands!

Your Dear Zoo Memories

'Reading Dear Zoo with my children and seeing their faces light up when they open the flaps.'

'I remember my mum used to read me Dear Zoo when I was little and make all the animal sounds. My favourite was the "ha tooo" of the spitting camel, which always made me giggle!!'

'I remember having this book read to me in school and then reading it to my own pupils in my primary school classroom! They each had to write a letter to the zoo requesting an animal they would have liked to have as a pet. We had some intresting animals...! A fantasic book :)'

'This is one of my son's favourite books and I have kept it as it will always remind me of his giggle as a baby when we got to the page with the cheeky Monkey!'

'Watching my tiny daughter open the flaps, gradually learn the animal sounds, then their names. Now aged two, last week she went to the bookshelf, picked up Dear Zoo and sat with her 5 month old brother and showed him how to lift the flaps and told about all the animals - so lovely!'
