Have you ever noticed this massive rose at The Rabbit hOle? 🌹 👀

On the edge of the giant flora in our Frog and Toad exhibit and dangerously close to Robert the Rose Horse 🐴💨, it's there as a nod to a particular children's book creator.

Any guesses who it might be and what picture book it is referencing? 🤔

We'll give you a clue! The illustrator is one of several who has a birthday this week including: Paul Galdone, Helen Oxenbury, Anita Lobel, and Richard Scarry.
