If I ran the zoo

Welcome to the world of Gerald McGrew, who has some wild ideas for perking up his local zoo.

Having let the existing animals go, he'd start all over again, creating a madcap menagerie of weird and wonderful creatures taken from every corner of the globe.

His New Zoo, McGrew Zoo would be "better than Noah's whole Ark", with an amazing array of beasts, ranging from the incredible Thwerll, whole legs are snarled up in a terrible snerl, to the family of Joats, whose feet are like cows' but wear squirrel-skin coats!

Packed with hilarious pictures and tongue-twisting rhymes, this fast-paced and wildly imaginative story contains all the essential ingredients that have made Dr. Seuss a worldwide best-seller over the past fifty years.
