Here Comes Firefighter Hippo

New York Times best-selling author Jonathan London explores how even the smallest Hippo can be a big help when he teams up with his friends.

Today Little Hippo is playing firefighter. But as Firefighter Hippo pedals his fire truck through the jungle, he gets trapped in a mud hole, tangled in tall grass, and stuck on a hill. That's nothing compared to the biggest surprise of all—a real fire. It's a good thing the little firefighter knows exactly what to do!"Little Hippo's story charms readers with copious onomatopoeia. Observant readers can see clues as to the next animal Little Hippo will encounter in the gouache illustrations, which are full of Seuss-ian colors and de Brunhoff-eque shapes. What job will Little Hippo tackle next? Readers will be there for it." — Kirkus ReviewsJonathan London is the author of more than eright books for children, including the Froggy books.
