Book Synopsis

Everyone’s on the sofa to share a book: zebra, cat, child, lion. “Wait!” says Zebra, “Stork isn’t here yet!” Then the cat needs a cushion, the hamster’s missing, someone’s sitting on the lion’s tail, the fish wants to be in the middle… NOW they’ll be able to start—won’t they?

In this fun, cumulative story, the familiar chaos of piling onto the sofa with friends builds to a climactic hullabaloo until the happy ending of sharing a book in an ideal reading spot—behind the sofa under the blanket tent.

Susanne Strasser’s snowballing animal stories that children love are bestsellers in multiple languages.
