Book Reviews of But Not the Hippopotamus
Book Review: Buuuuuuut... YES! the hippopotamus! (But not... the armadillo.)
Summary: 4 Stars
Poor li'l armadillo. *sniff*
There isn't a moral message in this story. A hippo sulks while her friends have fun without her (I always think of the hippo as a girl, anyway) - probably not even noticing that she's there.
This is great for hamming it up, with lots of fake sobs as the story goes on.
Then she is given her metaphorical engraved invitation and is delighted to join in. And now the armadillo is on the sidelines, probably to have his own (armadillo always seemed like a guy to me) happy ending later.
Simple, short story for short kids.
