Marvellous fun

This is one of my son's favorite books, and it is one of my favorite books to read to him. The rhymes are wonderful and the pictures are loads of fun. My only caveat: be careful with this book around very young children, since both the eyes and the ears can, after a thousand or so readings (i.e., after about six months) start to come off. Aside from this, one of my favorite children's books EVER!!!!!

Cute board book in the shape of a hippo's head

This is a pleasant rhyming book about how to hide a hippo:"If you should sneak a hippo home, you'll find she's hard to hide. Her head is huge! Her bottom's big! Her middle's very wide."...and so on.The cover of the book has plastic eyes with moveable pupils and little felt ears. The pages are die cut to resemble teeth and the center page is drawn to look like the hippo's open mouth. You can pinch the binding to make the hippo open and close her mouth.My ten month old daughter enjoys turning the pages and seeing the hippo chomp.There are other books in the "Chomper" series which are designed in a similar fashion to resemble a bear, a tiger and a dinosaur.
