Dear Zoo: A Lift-the-Flap Book
Campbell, R. (2011). Dear zoo. London: Macmillan Children's Books.
Format: Board Book
Age: 0+
This book follows the storyline that a child wrote to the zoo to send him an animal. He gets animals like elephants, giraffes, lions, camels, snakes, monkey, a frog and finally a puppy. The animals are under flaps that need to be lifted. This would be a great book for story time as young children would be excited to announce the animals they see and know. Another way that they can be interactive with this story is that the lion is sent back because he is too fierce, and the camel is sent back because he is too grumpy, the children could be prompted to act out these things to keep them involved with the story. They could also be prompted with what sound does a monkey make. This a fun interactive book for young children and even beginning readers.
