(Paperback)

In "Hippo Tales-Note to a Bloat" it's Ella's first day at Day Care. She gets permission from the Family Bloat to take her pet Hippopotamus, Bo, along with her. They proceed to have boatloads of fun, running, gamboling, shooting basketballs, playing and dancing with all the kids, swimming, napping and, of course, doing what comes naturally to a hippo, eating. What a marvelous day.
