If you were smarter than Miss "know-it-all" Hippy Poppohotamus, your ego wouldn't be bigger than your butt and you wouldn't get stuck in an elevator. Her friends tell her she'd better not try to sunbathe on a rooftop, but does Hippy listen? No, she does not, and she needs an army of creatures and humans to get her out of that elevator. With the help of a mouse in a tuxedo and a stovepipe hat, Hippy learns that her friends know a thing or two, and that she'd better not try to fool them again. A fun picture book for children just learning to read ... and for older ones who already know a thing or two about the art of reading and story-telling. Lesson learned: Don't be a show-off!
