The Happy Hippopotami

Climb aboard the picnic buses for a happy hippoholiday! This lively rhyming story of a seaside romp where hippopotamamas, papas, sons, and daughters are soaking up the sun, strolling along the boardwalk, and dancing around the maypole makes a perfect read-aloud. Seeming to spill off the pages with their jollity, Everitt s spirited illustrations are sure to endear these playful creatures to kids--who will have as much fun as the hippos do. --Publishers Weekly
