But Not the Hippopotamus [BOARD BOOK]

Follow along as this shy hippo observes spirited animals play in a bog, try on new hats, and go for a jog, all while longing to join in the fun.

Building toward an exciting ending, readers will be cheering on the hippopotamus, as it finds the courage to say YES to trying something new.

Then the animal pack
Comes scurrying back,
Saying, HEY! COME JOIN THE LOT OF US!
And she just doesn’t know—
Should she stay? Should she go?
But YES the hippopotamus!
