What is Zagazoo about?
Bella and George are thrilled when a mysterious parcel arrives containing a tiny baby called Zagazoo. But their new arrival soon changes in surprising ways. One day he is a noisy vulture, the next an enormous elephant, a troublesome warthog or a hairy monster. As Zagazoo grows, Bella and George must adapt to each unexpected stage, discovering that family life can be messy, exhausting and wonderfully funny. Quentin Blake’s lively illustrations bring this affectionate story about growing up and caring for others to life.
