"Fun story with great illustrations." Purchased on Mighty Ape

Loved it. Well done Chris.

"Fantastic rhyming children's book"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Recently bought this book for my niece on a friend's recom­mendation. It's a cool story with rhyming throughout. I enjoyed reading it almost as much as my niece did… Win-win!

"Learn and have fun reading"
5 stars"

It's a great book for kids to learn about a whole array of different animals like a rhea, caribou and tortoise. Llewelyn delivers a comedic tale of the working life of animals while Tulloch transforms the tale into a visionary delight. My daugher and son love to compare themselves to a different animal each night. A great read, well done!

Description

Who knew that zoo animals went home each night, after working at the zoo? After a long day's work at the zoo, the animals all head back to their respective homes, making their way back to the zoo the following morning, just like the rest of us do! Some ride public transport, some take a jog, some hitch a ride and tough tiger revs his moped...each tackling the morning commute as grown-up people often do. But where is giraffe? Will he clock in on time?
