Bookroo's summary
Gerald McGrew dreams of a zoo filled with fantastical creatures like a ten-footed lion and an Elephant-Cat. What wonders would he unleash if he could create his own wild menagerie?
From the publisher
If Gerald McGrew ran the zoo, he’d let all the animals go and fill it with more unusual beasts–a ten-footed lion, an Elephant-Cat, a Mulligatawny, a Tufted Mazurka, and others.
