Dear Zoo
   
Dear Zoo was published in 1982 and over the years it has become firmly established as a classic for the under 5’s. To celebrate the 25th anniversary five years ago, Rod Campbell refreshed the original artwork to give Dear Zoo an updated and fresh look, ready to delight a new generation of young readers!  It is now available as a jacketed hardback edition (220x220mm), paperback (240x240mm) and boardbook (160x160mm).

A child writes to the zoo for a pet. The zoo send 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!
