Brilliant family book!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this funny, heart-warming and inspiring story of Mariella and her antics in setting up the Knock off zoo. The endearing characters are great role models and the creativity that has gone into weaving their story is sure to capture every child's imagination whilst providing plenty of laughs. All my nieces and nephews will be getting a copy of this great family story.
