How DO you hide a ginormous hippo?

The shed is too small, the beds are too low, and the hippo? He's not great at blending in.

A playful story with a cosy twist … this hippo might be fluffier than he looks!

"The playful use of positional language including under, behind, outside, inside, among, offers a gentle introduction to spatial concepts ... [and] continual use of questions creates further learning opportunities, encouraging young children to think, respond, and engage actively with the story."
– Kathryn Beilby, ReadPlus

"Satisfying and well-resolved, How Do You Hide a Hippo? exudes a freshness that lifts it above its simple plot."
