Mercer Mayer, author and illustrator of this book, introduces the video, exits the screen and reappears dressed as Professor Wormbog's "brother, " who reads the story to the audience in a "British" accent. Professor Wormbog has a vast collection of ...beasties from A to Y but he is missing Z for Zipperump-a-zoo. Now he must find one. Folk guitar picking (by the author's son, Ben Mayer) accompanies video of the author reading the rhymed story, and includes screen shots of the book's illustrations.

Written, drawn and told by Mercer Mayer. Video of Mercer Mayer telling his picture book, There's An Alligator Under My Bed. Footage of the author interspersed with illustrations from the book. Great verbal and nonverbal expression and sound effects!... This is undoubtedly a true story from his childhood, perhaps embellished. A charmed group of listening children respond. Dial Books published this favorite title in 1987. (4:50)
