Description

There's chaos in the clothes shop when the animals go on a glorious shopping spree. Zebra's zip is stuck and Toad's tracksuit is far too big, but Flamingo finds a stylish bag, and Caterpillar's shoes are really cool. Even the smallest toddler will enjoy the wonderfully silly animal antics in this book, so join in the fun -- you've never seen a fashion show like it! Trademark Julia Donaldson rhymes and rhythms are perfect to read aloud, and Nick Sharratt's mischievous and funny illustrations make the bright and playful Hippo Has a Hat a sure winner. Just right for toddlers! Look out for: Animal Music, Chocolate Mousse For Greedy Goose, One Mole Digging a Hole, Toddle Waddle and Goat Goes to Playgroup.
