Perfect for preschool children, 64 Zoo Lane had the highest viewing figures on CBeebies in 2011. With six classic 64 Zoo Lane stories now reissued, Lucy and her animal fans are bound to win yet more young fans. Lucy has some very strange neighbours with horns and humps, tails and trunks - that's because Lucy lives next door to the zoo! Every night, she climbs down the long long neck of Georgina the Giraffe and listens to one of them tell her a story... Tonight it's the story of Zed the Zebra. Zed is faster than any other animal in the jungle - and he's always pointing it out. Until one day the animals plan an obstacle race and prove they can all do something well, and Zed isn't the best at everything!
