Good Night Gorilla by Peggy Rathmann

This is one of those sweet children's books that is charming and fun for infants, toddler, and young preschoolers. The basic premise of the story is that the zoo keeper is trying to lock up all of the animals for the night, but the gorilla steals his keys, lets all of the animals out of their cages, and they follow the zookeeper home. The text is simple and the illustrations, while fairly simple, have some lovely details that children love to point out as they become more familiar with the story. Where to Buy: Good Night Gorilla is widely available at children's book sellers or larger books stores that have a children's section.
