~ 25 Poems about Real Animals with Hundreds of Fun Facts ~
How do we see the animals we love (and some we may not) through human eyes? Poetry, scientific knowledge, and the vision of artists. There’s More to Hippos than You Know combines all three for children and their parents in a small book that allows us to look through a new window at familiar (the bunny and the dachshund) and exotic (the hippopotamus and the moray eel) in a new way. Short poems, both humorous and genuine, are accompanied with hundreds of fun facts and the unique and quirky illustrations of a brilliant animal artist to create a one-of-a-kind resource into the world of our fellow inhabitants of the earth. Laugh while you learn things you never knew about 25 of your favorite animals!
