When a mysterious green poop is left behind at Bob McGrew's zoo, Bob is determined to find out who did it! Includes a squishy, sparkly poop that shows through the front cover and on every interior spread.

Zookeeper Bob McGrew is back for another poop-filled adventure, this time in board book format! When a mysterious green poop is left behind at Bob McGrew's zoo, Bob is determined to find out who did it. Each one of the animals in the zoo explains why the poop doesn't belong to them in this hilarious rhyming adventure. Who could it belong to? Includes a squishy, sparkly poop that shows through the front cover and on every interior spread.
Steve Smallman worked as a children's book ilustrator for 20 years before he decided to try writing his own. Now, more than 100 books later, he's still at it! He visits schools, libraries, and festivals and paints murals, too.  When he's not working, he enjoys vacations, watching TV, gardening, and juggling grandchildren.

Ada Grey has been doodling since she was five and always knew she wanted to be an illustrator. She has drawn everything from babies to queens, dinosaurs to unicorns, and lots and lots of poop! Ada lives at the top of a steep hill in Brighton, England, and likes growing flowers in her garden that her silly orange tabby cat digs up.
PreS-K–Zookeeper McGrew has found a mysterious, sparkly poo (which is squishy for little fingers to enjoy!) that appeared at the zoo. As he questions zoo animals, readers will learn about animal feces. VERDICT Readers and their adults who are not put off by scatological humor will enjoy this one. --School Library Journal
