My Hippo Has the Hiccups

My Hippo Has the Hiccups and Other Poems I Totally Made Up

by Kenn Nesbitt, illustrated by Ethan Long

Two gifted creative minds paired up to produce this outstandingly silly volume of poetry for kids. Ethan Long’s illustrations are the perfect complement for Kenn Nesbitt’s funny poems. In fact, they almost steal the show! Nesbitt also reads 39 of the poems on the accompanying CD. Recommended for middle elementary kids, but it’s a fun family read aloud too. Follow it up with Ethan Long’s Tickle the Duck for more storytime giggles.
