How Do You Hide A Hippo?

How Do You Hide A Hippo? by this playful picture book asks an important question: where on earth do you put a ginormous hippo when you need him out of sight? With bright humour and a cosy, bedtime-ready feel, it’s the kind of story kids love hearing again and again.

As the search for the perfect hiding spot begins, every sensible option proves impossible: the shed is too small, the beds are too low, and this hippo isn’t exactly built for blending in. Each attempt brings a fresh laugh and a gentle build in rhythm, leading to a sweet twist that’s more snug than you might expect.

Perfect for preschool and early primary readers, families after a funny read-aloud, and anyone who enjoys animal stories with warmth, imagination and heart.

Add it to your next storytime stack and see if you can spot the best hiding place.
