When Zizu, the lovable little zebra, loses his stripes, he turns to his
jungle chums for help. Geoffrey Giraffe, Cody Crocodile, Priscilla Gorilla,
Poppy Parrot, and Ellie Elephant all do their best, in their own special ways,
to come to the rescue.
Zizu Loses His Stripes is a heart-warming picture-book, designed to teach
children about the power of friendship. Set in simple rhyme, it is bound to
engage early-years readers and make them smile.
While enjoying the story, young readers are encouraged to count the
sneaky snakes that are hidden in the jungle. There is also a 'Zizu Says'
section at the end, with some important messages for children.
