Hello, Hippo! Goodbye, Bird!

Hello, Hippo! Goodbye, Bird!

by Kristyn Crow

A fresh, spare, hilarious picture book about a grumpy hippo, a persistent bird, and a delightful friendship!

Bird wants to be friends with Hippo. 
Hippo wants to be left alone. 
Bird makes a great umbrella for Hippo. He tells great Hippo jokes. He keeps the bugs away (lunch!).
Hippo wants Bird to GO AWAY.
But then a thunderstorm rolls in, and Hippo is left alone. . . .
Maybe Bird wasn’t so bad afterall?

This is a delightful story of two irresistible characters with a funny-and-ultimately-sweet friendship theme.
