by Gerry Boland (Author), Aine Mc Guinness (Illustrator)
After escaping from the zoo and coming to live with Patrick and his mum, Marco proves to have many talents. Now Patrick discovers that Marco is also a musical genius - he can play the trombone, banjo and even moonwalk like Michael Jackson! `Let's start a band', Patrick says, and Marco becomes a star.
Then disaster strikes. He is spotted without his mask and taken back to the zoo. How will Patrick and Mum get him out again?
