Dear Zoo
Written and Illustrated by Rod Campbell

Publication date: 1997
Publisher: Campbell Books
ISBN: 978-0333712788

Summary/Back cover:
A child writes to the zoo for a pet. The zoo sends a series of unsuitable pets, revealed behind flaps in the form of crates and packing cases. These animals are all sent back for different reasons, except the last one, which is perfect!

Review:
Lovely little book that your child will love. There is a sweet story-line behind it making it a nice simple book to read anytime your munchkin chooses. Even as an adult who has read it a few too many times to small children, I can understand the wonder of getting so many pets and being able to send them back, after opening the flaps 20 odd times. Good book and, like the Very Hungry Caterpillar, a must for a small child’s home library.

Rating 4 out of 5
