    5.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 y.o. loved it!
    Reviewed in Canada on July 16, 2024
    My 4.5 y.o. niece loved this book. She has field trip to the zoo and came home very excited about Hippos her mother told me. So I bought her this book to encourage her to be interested in reading, she loves this book even if she isn't fully reading yet.
