5.0 out of 5 stars Little fingers, 23 Feb 2007
By A. Norman (Coventry, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
What a find! A tough, sturdy board book with flaps requiring different skills. The content absorbs my [...], very active grandson totally, something which few books can do at this stage. The text can be used at different levels from simple animal noises up to story involvement. A clever, interactive, pop-up, which I would highly recommend for little fingers.

5.0 out of 5 stars My son's first and favourite, 18 Mar 2008
By sam155 (Gloucestershire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
I first heard the story told on Cbeebies story time. I re-enacted it much to my son's amusement and we bought the book at the earliest opportunity. Its a great book with a simply premise- several pets are sent by the zoo and all are unsuitable until the last one "he was perfect. I kept him". Its a lift the flap book with just enough text to keep their attention on each page. The illustrations are simple and bold and the book presents opportunities to talk about proportions and appearances and of course, to make funny animal noises. My son, in his enthusiasm, has wrecked the first one we bought him and we are going to have to buy a new one. That's how much he loves it. Since this book, he has really learnt to enjoy books as a one to one activity with me, which makes me really happy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent. , 11 Dec 2007
By V. Mccourt "Mummyoftwo" (North Lincs) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was a book given to my daughter for her first birthday. It was a favourite for a long time and has done a lot for promoting her language development. The pictures are lovely. The book is sturdy and unlike some flap books, they do not easily pull off.
