It’s bedtime at the zoo, and all the animals are going to sleep. Or are they? Find out in this perfect-formed classic bedtime story, loved by generations of readers.
‘Good night, Gorilla,’ says the zookeeper as he finishes his rounds at the zoo. But Gorilla has other ideas, sneakily stealing the zookeeper’s keys and letting himself out of his cage … then letting Elephant, Lion, Hyena, Giraffe and Armadillo out too! Will anyone go to bed?!
· Perfect for readers aged 2 and up.
· Gently funny, calming, comforting and nostalgic – the perfect book for bedtime.
· A must-have for every child’s bookshelf, alongside the likes of Goodnight Moon, Dear Zoo, Elmer, The Gruffalo, Guess How Much I Love You and The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
