When was the last time you saw or heard the wonderful word berserk?
It’s been a while in this house, so of course we had to grab this quick read about 45 wild party animals (er, party hippos, and how could I forget– one beast.)
It all begins with one lonely hippo sitting by his phone– he decides to call two of his pals to come over… and then word spreads like wildfire! A group of three shows up, then four, then “five hippos come overdressed” (in tuxedos and evening gowns, and the hippo who answers the door isn’t wearing, well, anything.)
Six hippos, seven hippos, eight sneaky hippos, and finally– nine hard working hippos all arrive to the party, and then…
“ALL THE HIPPOS GO BERSERK!”
You and your cutie will count up to nine and then back down to one, all while feeling like a couple of rhyming “plus one” guests at the hippo’s house.
Hippos Go Berserk!

Aren’t Boynton books wonderful? I wonder how many littles will be asking why the “phone” looks so unlike the phones they see today!

I didn’t think of that! I bet a lot of them will be wondering!
