The Very Noisy Baby by Alison Lester

Reviewed by Ally CLPS

There once was a very noisy baby who could copy any type of noise, like every single animal, she ever wants. One day there was a zookeeper who was looking for her tiger, and other people looking for a horse, an owl, a cow and a cockatoo. Everyone knocked on the door of the little pink house. The people who lived in the house kept saying that they didn't have their animals but they did have a very noisy baby! Everyone was thinking about where their animals might have gone. Then the sister had an idea and then the baby growled and gooed and every animal came and everyone was happy!
