This read-together board book is a snowballing narrative of animal chaos that culminates in
story time under a blanket tent. Everyone's on the sofa to share a book: zebra cat child
lion. "Wait!" says zebra "Stork isn't here yet!" Then cat needs a cushion hamster's missing
someone's sitting on lion's tail fish wants to be in the middle . . . . NOW they'll be able to
start--won't they? In this fun humorous story the familiar chaos of piling onto the sofa with
friends builds to a climactic hullabaloo until the happy ending of sharing a book in an ideal
reading spot--behind the sofa under the blanket tent. Susanne Strasser's snowballing animal
stories that children love are bestsellers in multiple languages. "A standout board
book."--Youth Services Book Review
