Quentin Blake
Zagazoo by Quentin Blake
Hardcover
(Jonathan Cape, London March 15, 1676)
George and Bella are delighted when they receive an adorable Zagazoo. But as time goes by they find the Zagazoo changes, from a sweet baby, to a screeching vulture, a clumsy elephant, and even a fire-breathing dragon. Just when they reach their wits end, he becomes a wonderful, polite young man. But nothing stays the same for long in this clever tale about the joys and hazards of child-rearing.
