Description

Rod Campbell’s beloved classic Dear Zoo has been delighting toddlers and parents since it was first published in 1982. With its bright, bold artwork, simple text, and engaging lift-the-flap format, this bestselling board book is perfect for introducing young children to animals, storytelling, and interactive reading.

Join the fun as a child writes to the zoo to request a pet—only to receive a series of surprising animals! Each page features a sturdy flap hiding a new animal, keeping little readers guessing and engaged from start to finish.

Key Features:

  • Interactive Lift-the-Flap Design: Encourages curiosity and active participation, letting children guess which animal is hiding behind each flap.

  • Durable for Little Hands: With thick card pages and a chunky cased cover, this board book is made to withstand repeated reading and play.

  • Classic Storytelling: A simple, rhythmic text paired with bold illustrations makes it ideal for shared reading and early learning.
