In this preschool favorite, zoo animals sneak into a zookeeper's house to sleep in his cozy bedroom. Watch as the gorilla steals the zookeeper's keys and releases the animals one by one after the zookeeper wishes them goodnight. What will the zookeeper's wife do when she discovers her bedroom full of zoo animals? This gently humorous story, told primarily through lively pictures, makes a wonderful bedtime read.
