A boy brings home a zoo full of animals and discovers there can be room for one more in his family.

After a trip to the zoo, a young boy discovers the animals have followed him home-and are hiding around the house! There's a lion by the couch, a bat on the ceiling, and even an elephant in the garage!

With all these animals around, there isn't much room, but with a baby sibling due soon, this little boy will soon learn that there can be space for everyone. When the Zoo Followed Me Home is a delightfully illustrated and whimsical story that explores imagination, discovery, and growing as a family.

Claire E. Peters has been living and breathing stories since she was a young girl. Understanding the lasting impact that a childhood book can have on a reader, she's been inspired to create tales that evoke a sense of magic and emotion in both children and adults alike. Claire lives in Australia with her husband and two young children. Together, they keep a watchful eye out for any sneaky zoo animals that may be hiding around their home. Chiara Franceschetti has always loved drawing. Originally a graduate of architecture, she began her creative career after having two children. Inspired by the mountainous surroundings of her childhood, fairy tales, and travel, Chiara works digitally, often combining watercolours to form detailed and joyfully coloured artwork. Chiara lives in South Tyrol, Italy, with her husband and two children.
