Description

Mrs Golightly doesn't like animals - and now a whole zoo has moved next door! No matter how hard she tries to shoo them away, she finds animals everywhere: a kangaroo on the loo, a giraffe in her bath, and even ants in her pants.

What can she do to get rid of these stinky, bothersome creatures


Bursting with colour, delightful rhyme and outrageous humour, Shoo! is acclaimed children's author Susie Bower's first picture book.

'So entertaining, and the repetitive rhyming, will have your child shouting out the words with you before you've finished reading it' - Womans Weekly
