About this title

Synopsis

Welcome to the Zoo… But Whatever You Do―DON’T Lift the Flap!

The zoo is calm. The animals are safely behind their gates. The friendly robot tour guide is doing a great job keeping everything in order. There’s just one simple rule:
Don’t open the zoo gates!
(Easy, right? ...Right?)

In this wildly fun board book, readers join a mechanical guide on a tour of the zoo. From the lion’s lair to the monkey house to the aquarium, each stop comes with a stern warning:
Do NOT lift the flap.
But with giant, tempting flaps on every page, how long can your little reader resist?

Peek behind the gates and prepare for zoo-tastrophes galore―lions on the loose, lemurs in the lunchroom, and pandas hijacking the popcorn cart! The poor robot can’t keep up… and it’s all your fault (well, kind of).

Why readers go bananas for this book:

• Chunky, durable flaps perfect for little hands

• Bright, hilarious illustrations with surprises on every page

• Riotous animal mayhem that builds with every turn

• A funny lesson in what not to do (with plenty of opportunities to do it anyway)

Part of the laugh-out-loud Don’t! board book series, Don’t Open the Zoo Gate! is a rollicking, read-it-again-and-again favorite for little mischief-makers.

Will YOU follow the robot’s instructions and keep the zoo in one piece?
Only one way to find out…
