What is Dear Zoo about?

In 'Dear Zoo', a child writes to the zoo requesting a pet. The zoo responds by sending a series of animals—a monkey, a lion, even an elephant—each hidden under a flap. Each animal is returned for being too big, too fierce, or too naughty, until the perfect pet arrives. With bright, bold illustrations and engaging flaps to lift, this classic book offers a delightful surprise on every page, making it a cherished favourite for young readers.
