Dear Zoo 8-inch Monkey

Product Information

Young children will love lifting the flaps to discover the animals the zoo has sent – a monkey, a lion and even an elephant! What I do love is that this book was at the start of a revolution to create books that were more hands-on and interactive.

Lift the flaps and join in the fun with Rod Campbell’s classic, Dear Zoo, with a host of favourite zoo animals and flaps to lift on every page. Creatively simple and with gentle humour, his books have withstood the test of time, and are still enjoyed in houses and classrooms around the world by both children and adults alike.

They could sort the animals into two hoops labelled farm and zoo, do a numbered animal puzzle or weigh the different animals from the book.

Rod Campbell, the creator of the preschool lift-the-flap classic Dear Zoo , has been a trusted name in early learning for over thirty-five years.

What a way to educate young toddlers about the consequence of being too naughty in the form of a well narrated, yet very simple story.
