Favourite characters Zoe and Beans are back in this delightfully magical adventure. When Zoe tempts Beans to jump through the hoop with a handful of Choccy Bears she has no idea what will happen next! Poor Beans! The hoop is magic; Beans comes back – but not always as a dog. Can Zoe get the real Beans back? Luckily she can -just. A funny and heartwarming story to join the other Zoe and Beans stories.
Zoe has found a fun new game to play! When Beans jumps through her hoop he magically transforms into ...Beans the rabbit, with floppy ears, or Beans the crocodile, with snappy jaws! But could Beans the elephant be a jump too far? The hoop may be magic but it's only small - and a great big elephant could easily get stuck...
