The look on Little T’s face at the start of this book will be familiar to worrywarts everywhere.

Staring down the prospect of an unwanted visit to the zoo, Little T can’t quite recall why the zoo scares her. To jog her memory, her family engages in a wild dress-up parade of possible animal prompts: “Does it hop with a pocket?” or “Can it give itself showers?”

Unable to recollect what scares her so, Little T plucks up the courage to visit the zoo, where discovering the source of her fears leads to an unexpected ending.
