Something is making mischief at the zoo, leaving a trail of purple paw prints in its wake. Could it be whomever slept in Elephant-s straw, drank Lion-s milk, pooped in Ostrich-s sandbox, and scratched on Giraffe-s favorite tree? As the victims come forward and express their growing fears to the zookeeper, the list of adjectives describing the possible perpetrator grows as well. Their anxious cumulative conclusion (-It was definitely a monster. A very sleepy, very thirsty, very stinky, very SCRATCHY monster-) is accompanied by a drawing of a somnambulistic purple creature with four arms, a green tongue, and a yellow horn who seems capable of any number of crimes. Finally the culprit is revealed: a cute kitten who walked through some purple paint-though goldfish Goldie (-But, guys, it tried to eat me!-) is unconvinced that the kitty-s intentions are wholly benign. App creator Gallanosa makes a confident picture book debut, with solid comic timing and a skillful wielding of tried-and-true

Someone is making a great big mess at the zoo in this hilarious and delightful debut picture book. Can you find the culprit before the zoo animals' do in this gentle mystery for the youngest readers?

All the animals at the zoo are in a tizzy. Someone slept in Elephant's haystack, drank from Lion's bowl, went potty in Ostrich's sandbox (yuck!), and scratched Giraffe's favorite tree. Worst of all, someone tried to eat Goldie, the zoo's resident goldfish. Whoever it was has been leaving a suspicious trail of footprints behind. Is it a great big scary monster as the animals fear? Or is it something else entirely? Follow the clues on every page, and you just might be surprised to see who is behind this very messy situation.
