Saving Fiona: The Story of the World's Most Famous Baby Hippo

48 pp. | Houghton | June, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-328-48513-7 $19.99
(3) K-3 When a tiny hippopotamus was born three months premature at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden in 2017, none of the large mammal experts knew how to properly care for such a vulnerable creature--nor could they anticipate how social media would make little Fiona a star. Told in clear prose and with photographs at once moving, hilarious, and fascinating, this is an edifying story of survival.
