Daisy's mum and dad are always too busy to listen to a word that she says. So, when one day she tells them that a big purple rhino has just walked into the house and taken a chomp of her pancake, guess what? That's right - nobody listens!

But there's a surprise in store for Mum and Dad when they discover that a big purple rhino has gone missing from the zoo. Perhaps they should have taken more notice of what Daisy had to say.

Kids will love this funny story about a little girl and her most unlikely new friend.
