Zagazoo: Part of the BBC’s Quentin Blake’s Box of Treasures

This is a lovely story, written and beautifully illustrated by Quentin Blake. My son brought it home from school when he was 5 or 6 and I used to read it to him at bedtime. It is really only as he got older that I fully appreciated everything about this book. I think a lot of parents with boys might find they have a Zagazoo on their hands! It is so well-observed. It has really stayed with us over the years - we still look at each other from time to time and say our boy is being a bit Zagazoo! He's 16 now and thankfully showing signs of turning into the nice young man with perfect manners! Highly recommended by this old pelican!

It’s a great picture book. I love it, because it is funny and easy to read and understand it. My kids really enjoyed.

What a treat to see these books reprintedAmazing drawings and exceptionally good for children

Love Quentin Blake. Bought the book for my teenage daughter for a bit of a giggle, given the subject matter of the story. She liked it.

This is a book of beauty. When my boys were little and I would read to them, they found it amusing that I would always fail to get to the end of it because I was in tears. It's a succinct and sensitive and beautiful thing. Amazing job from Quentin Blake!

Bought for my daughter and son-in-law. They thought it was fun to read.

My 21mo son loves mr magnolia and all join in so I bought this as an early xmas present. I love it, its a lovely book about raising children and then how they view parents, I'm going to buy more for my new parent friends. It doesn't have the lovely toddler friendly rhyming patterns of some of blake's other books so my son hasn't fallen in love with it yet but I think this will be a good one for older kids so we will get our money's worth at some point.

This is such a funny book. Children and grownups love it. I always buy it for new babies, it gives their parents a warning of what is to come
