Reviews

'The perfect book for everyone to join in! ... Soon readers and listeners will be whooping and whinnying and hissing and squeaking just like the characters in the pictures!' -- Julia Eccleshare, M.B.E., LoveReading4Kids 'When I read this to my class (yr1/2) they loved acting out the animal actions and making the animal noises ... It is so child friendly!' -- Toppsta Review 'This book is absolutely fantastic! There are so many animals featured which both my children (aged 1 & 3) love to copy! It definitely fills our house with lots of laughter! It's also a great educational book. Not only can they repeat the sounds the animals make they can act out and pretend to be the animals! I recommend this for any child, it's definitely a family favourite already!' -- Toppsta Review
