Description
By: Sandra Boynton | Illustrator: Sandra Boynton
From the one and only Sandra Boynton comes an all-new deluxe edition of the picture book that started it all: Hippos Go Berserk! Celebrated for 45 wild years, this modern classic has been completely redrawn and redesigned by Boynton for a new generation of readers (and hippos.) And don’t worry—the board book version (first published in 1996) is still alive and well!
The story begins quite simply, with no hint of the chaos ahead:
One hippo, all alone, calls two hippos on the phone…
Exuberant hippopotamus guests show up in ever-increasing numbers, until an all-night party is inevitable. This snazzy new edition honors the enduring power of a deft and nuanced depiction of the Hippo Condition.
