The average hippopotamus
is big from top to bottomus,
it travels at a trotamus,
and swims when days are hotamus.
This collection of playful poetry from the nation's first Children's Poet Laureate is irresistibly silly. More than 100 spirited verses with titles such as "My Pig Put On a Bathing Suit," "I'm Shopping for a Dinosaur," and "The Blue-Bean-Bonking Bubble" offer giggle-inducing puns, tongue-twisting wordplay, and typographical sight gags—all with a healthy dose of imaginative whimsy. With delightfully droll illustrations by James Stevenson, My Dog May Be a Genius is sure to become a read-aloud favorite for parents and children alike. For ages 4-8
