I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet . . . Rod Campbells classic lift-the-flap book Dear Zoo has been a firm favourite with toddlers and parents alike ever since it was first published in 1982. 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? With bright bold artwork a catchy refrain and a whole host of favourite animals no childs bookcase is complete without a well-worn copy of Dear Zoo.
