Publisher's Synopsis
What would you do if you and your pals found a bawling baby hippopotamus on the playground at school? Join the fun as a teacher rewards his students with his impromptu, whimsical, imaginative, silly tale of four classmates on a quest to search all over the Queen City for a lost baby hippo's mama.
This interactive tale is best read aloud, and is also great independent reading.
Cincinnatians will likely recognize notable local landmarks and may find some unique Cincinnati 'gems' sprinkled throughout the images - IYKYK.
Educators may find it useful as a writer's workshop mini-lesson on action verbs, character traits, and predictions.
