My youngest loved this book as a young toddler.\u00a0 He’d ask for it every night before bed and we’d watch the gorilla release all of his animal friends so they could follow the zookeeper home.\u00a0 We’d loved the details, like the toy in each animals’ cage,\u00a0 the balloon that drifts through each double-page spread, and the mouse constantly lugging around a huge banana.\u00a0 He would giggle and giggle when one of the characters got a big surprise.\u00a0 A real charmer and, of course, perfect for bedtime. (He also loved the Scholastic video version of the book, which is less detailed but equally sweet.)<\/p>\n
