Each animal arriving from the zoo as a possible pet fails to suit its prospective owner, until just the right one is found. Movable flaps reveal the contents of each package.

When a kookaburra named Matilda feels down, Fiona and the other zoo animals dress up to cheer her up.

Young readers are invited to lift flaps to reveal such zoo animals as giraffes, hippos, pandas, and tigers.

Fiona learns about the seasons of the year and how, even when things change around you, true friendship and love stay the same.

When he misses his bus to the zoo, Amos McGee, a friendly zookeeper who was up late planning a surprise for his friends, gets some unexpected help.

Since Ellie the elephant saved her home with her wonderful paintings, the zoo is back in business and the animals are more energetic than ever. All except for Lucy the giraffe, who hasn't been able to sleep with all the noise. Determined to help her friend, Ellie tries to tone down the ruckus and organize the animals into an orchestra--

"Join Fiona the hippo as she visits her zoo friends, finding out what makes each one special. Is it their speedy running? Their lovely singing? And what makes Fiona so special to all of her friends?"--

It is Fiona's birthday, and fans from all over the world are sending her cards and gifts, she is giving interviews and having her picture taken, and with all the fuss she is neglecting her zoo friends--and when her mother points this out she decides to throw her own party, with gifts for all her animal friends.

Rafe Khatchadorian is horrified that because of a missed science assignment he has to go to summer school; but instead of three weeks in a school room, he finds himself as a volunteer at BushyTail animal refuge, which is really hard, smelly work--and somehow he needs to use the experience (and the help of a girl he meets there) to produce a first-class science report.

A door in a little girl's bedroom leads to a passage to the zoo.
