A zookeeper says goodnight to each animal, not realizing the gorilla has stolen his keys and is letting everyone out. The animals follow him home and sneak into his bedroom.
Why This Age
Nearly wordless — the story is told through pictures. Perfect for pre-readers who can 'read' the visual narrative independently.
How to Use
- Let your child tell YOU what's happening in the pictures
- Point out the recurring colored key and balloon details
- Practice animal names and sounds
