A class of school children travel to Don's Safari, where he boasts at having all the animals in the world. Well... it would seem that he is missing a hippopotamus. Don assures the children that there is one out there, but no one seems to be able to locate it. No one, except Liam, who is ignored by the teacher throughout. While many animals are discovered, the hippo remains elusive, but not for Liam's lack of trying to alert everyone. This rhyming piece was one Neo liked at bedtime. He could point to all the pictures and identify many of the animals. It was perfect for the night before our visit to the zoo... where we WILL go to see the hippopotami for sure!
