I see him, Miss! He’s super tall! I’ll fetch him in no time at all.
I got’im, Miss! I got’im, Miss! I KNEW that I could spot’im, Miss!
...THAT’S not a hippopotamus!

A class trip to the zoo descends into a chaotic hunt for the missing hippopotamus. Teacher, zookeeper and all the children join the search. The noise and drama reach a pitch, and no one thinks to listen to quiet Liam, who really might know where the hippo is hiding.

That’s Not a Hippopotamus is a deft and delightful tale, packed with word play and madcap energy—and with a whole different story to enjoy in the illustrations.

"Buoyant fun for the very young" -- Kirkus Reviews (US)
"Kids will ask for it again and again just for the pure joy of joining in the hippo hunt... I highly, highly recommend this book." -- Storywraps (US)
