It is, by far, one of Atticus's favorite books. He and Ivy are both drawn to it as a source of comfort. There is something about lifting the flaps to reveal the surprise animal that brings joy. A simple plot - someone has written to the zoo requesting a pet. The pet keeps sending animals that just aren't right. Finally, the perfect animal is found. The edition we have is a pop-up as well. Atticus adores putting his little fingers in the lion's mouth. He also loves to hiss when the snake comes out. This is a must have for every baby.
