About This Book
Follow a sniffly girl on a hands-on trip to the zoo, and you'll find one miserable menagerie — and a comical ode to the virtue of tissues.
All of the animals down at the zoo
Are snuffling and snorting and sneezing ACHOO.
Why are the hyenas crying boo-hoo? And what gave the rhino a sickly green hue? It starts when Felicity Floo wipes her red, runny nose and transfers the goo. . . . Kids will be happily grossed out to follow the icky trail as she pets one hapless, bleary-eyed creature after another. With whimsical, stylized illustrations showing Felicity's handprints on every spread, this cautionary tale will have readers roaring out loud—and racing off to wash their hands!
