How to give a Hippopotamus a good time when he comes to visit provides a good model for how to treat friends of any kind. A hippo is not an easy friend to accommodate so the little girl has to be at her most thoughtful as she entertains him – despite his difficult habits! Luckily, the hippo is such a good friend that it makes everything very worth while.

A Piece of Passion from Publisher, Janetta Otter-Barry    I love the way the enormous, happy hippo ambles into the small child’s home and shares his day. I think this picture book is a winning mix of fantasy with a real toddler’s day. My favourite bit is where the hippo springs his final surprise. He is coming back again soon – and all his animal friends are coming too. Great fun, and a lovely, satisfying bedtime read-aloud.
