This book has great use of rhyme, meter, and onomatopoeia, none of it feeling forced-- it's a great read-aloud. Hilda is a darling character-- a hippo just trying to find her niche. She loves to dance, much to her friends' dismay. But thanks to the water buffalo, discovers a love for water-ballet dancing.
Darling book about a dancing hippo. Great for reading and acting out with young children. My older children also enjoyed reading and laughing about Hilda. Beautiful colorful pictures.
This book is in my top ten of favorite books for young kids. Cute message, great illustrations, and very fun to read.
I really liked the rhyme in this story. It was fun seeing the other animal's solutions to the problem, and how Hilda finally resolved the issue. I think that my Kindergarten students would really enjoy this.
