Goodreads 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).
Review:
In this book, readers go to Silly Zoo. The robot who runs the zoo tells readers not to open the gates and let out the animals, but when you open the flaps (and the gates), the animals are let out. This is a fun board book that teaches kids the consequences of not following the rules.
Don’t Open the Zoo Gate is a cute board book!
