Lift the flaps and join in the fun with Rod Campbell’s classic, Dear Zoo, with a host of favourite zoo animals and flaps to lift on every page.
‘I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet . . .’
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, catchy repetition, and a whole host of favourite animals, Dear Zoo is a must for every child’s bookshelf, and the thick card pages, chunky cased golden cover and sturdy flaps make it perfect for small hands.
Rod Campbell, the creator of preschool favourites including Oh Dear! and Noisy Farm, has been a trusted name in early learning for over forty years, and the classic, Dear Zoo has been a firm favourite with toddlers and parents alike since its first publication in 1982.
Look out for Rod Campbell’s Look After Us, a lift-the-flap animal book for toddlers with a positive message about conservation.

I’ve read this to my twins since they were babies, they loved the bright colours, and it really helped them get to grips with lift the flap books. It’s a very quick and simple book to read too!

We bought this book for my daughter when she was about 8 months old and first gaining some interest in lift the flap books. It was an instant hit with her. It’s a perfectly simple, but also interactive book for babies.
Each page has a crisp white background with simple text and illustrations. It’s a good design, there isn’t too much distraction from the main components for little ones. The flaps are also very sturdy, the sturdiest I’ve come across. The story is as a simple one, but also nice and there are lots of opportunities for labelling and pointing out different animals. We also did animal sounds with our daughter.
It has become less popular with her as she’s got older. She’s now almost two and rarely chooses it. As I’ve said already, it’s very simple, and therefore perhaps less interesting to older children.

Lift the flap are my grandsons favourite type of books. Although flaps are made of card they seem to be holding up very well.
