The welcome return of Oliver and Patch - this time with Ruby and a
lost baby penguin too!
Everyone fell in love with these special characters in Oliver and
Patch, finding their way in a big city and making new friends. In
this story the three friends visit the zoo. They growl at the tigers,
smile at the meerkats and laugh at the funny penguins. But when
Peep, a little penguin who's new to the zoo, goes missing, the
friends must set off together to bring him home.
But it isn't always easy to agree on a plan, and the friends have to
overcome some disagreements before everything works out.
Another heartwarming tale of friendship and working as a team
from the wonderful picture book partnership of Claire Freedman
(author of the ALIENS LOVE UNDERPANTS series) and the brilliant
Kate Hindley.
'A touching story about the importance of friendship ... Another
heartwarming tale of friendship and working as a team from this
bestselling duo. Relaxing and reassuring, this is a gentle read.'
