If All The Animals
Came Inside
The walls would tremble.
The dishes would break.
Oh, what a terrible mess
we would make!
If all the animals came inside, bears would run down the stairs, kangaroos would bounce on the couch, and hippos would play hide-and-seek through the halls! Join one family’s wild romp as animals of all shapes and sizes burst through the front door and make themselves right at home.
Extraordinary collage artwork from beloved illustrator Marc Brown (creator of the bestselling Arthur book and TV series) pairs with Eric Pinder’s hilarious rhyming verse to make this the perfect picture book to read aloud again and again.
