That's NOT a Hippopotamus!

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Sarah Davis. In this humorous rhyming story, when a hippopotamus can't be found at a safari, an entire class becomes "hippo-hunters," spotting other animals and mistaking them for the hippo ("That's NOT a hippopotamus!"). Readers will notice the hippo hidden within the skilled illustrations, which also capture the diverse, exuberant class and their exasperated teacher who finally listens to little Liam--who "REALLY see[s] 'im!"
