Little Simon DEAR ZOO

I have had this book for the last two years and it has been a big hit, first with my first-born and then again with my second born. This is how we read this book: I wrote to the zoo to send me a pet- They sent me an elephant, he was too big: my toddler extends her arms They sent me a giraffe, he was to tall- she raises her both hands They sent me a lion, he was to fierce- she roars like a lion They sent me a camel, he was too grumpy- she pouts They sent me a snake, he was scary- she shudders They sent me a monkey, he was too naughty- I tickle her and she giggles They sent me a frog, he was to jumpy- she jumps They sent me a dog, he was perfect, so I kept him- together we blow a kiss... I have also gifted this book couple of times and each time it has been a big hit with the babies as well as toddlers. Would highly recommend it.

This is the very first time I am editing my review. Previously I had given four star. But this gem deserves five star. Previous review: It's really a nice book for babies who love animals. I gifted this book to my little one on his first birthday. He recognizes all the animals and loves to open flip-flaps. Book is quite sturdy too. One can make it more interesting by asking questions, illustrating more about animals. Why I edited my review: After six months of use it still keeps my toddler angaged. He still enjoys this book alot. Why are we expecting some extra ordinary stories every time? Some times simple story are enjoyable too.

Very interesting and interactive book. Bought it for my baby when he was 3 months old to read to him. Even now at 8+ months, when he crawls away, he turns around and comes to me when I start reading the book to him or playing the sounds.

My 2 and a half year old son absolutely loves this book. He likes opening the flaps and calls out the name of animals all by his own , the flaps are a bit fragile however much to my surprise the flaps have withstood my son's rough handling for about 2 weeks now

Engaging

My child loves to read this book. Very cute book with a simple story, reaches about different animals and basic language development. He keeps picking up this book from his book shelf to read it again and again. I would highly recommend this book for kids between 2 to...

My kid is 5 months old and really enjoys these peak-a-boo type of books. this one is great for playtime to educate them on wild and pet animals.

A must buy. My 1 year old niece absolutely loved it. It has flaps which makes it more exciting for the child. I used to show the animals making the sound which the animal makes and my niece started to learn the same
