"The clever rhymes are irresistible but the story has much more than that—there is real emotion here, and the quiet child has a voice." Julia Marshall, Publisher

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.A deft and delightful tale, packed with word play and madcap energy A class trip to the zoo descends into a chaotic hunt for the missing hippopotamus.
