Dear Zoo

A story is told of someone who writes to the zoo asking to be sent a pet. However, the lion, camel, snake, frog, and monkey that get sent are all deemed unsuitable - the lion was too fierce, the camel too grumpy, the snake too scary, the frog too bumpy, and the monkey too naughty. Finally, a poppy is sent and proves to be perfect, so the person decides to keep it.
