Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Bonwill works the benefits of both cooperation and individuality into this second outing for Hugo the hippo and his tiny buddy, Bella the bird. Attempting to affirm his unique talents while getting ready for a water ballet, Hugo becomes increasingly irritated as Bella—complimenting and agreeing with him all the while—imitates his every move. No sooner does he accuse her of being a copycat (“I am not a copycat. I am a bird”) than onlookers rush up to proclaim the two “amazing synchronized swimmers!” This prompts a celebratory visit to the ice-cream parlor, where both order the same dish—and then Bella changes hers, “to be unique!” Just as the all-dialogue story line resembles one of Mo Willems’ Elephant and Piggie relationship dramas, the animals in Rickerty’s big, simple illustrations are drawn in broad, expressive strokes and placed against minimally detailed backgrounds. An emotionally nuanced and funny illustration of imitation being a form of flattery. Grades K-2. --John Peters

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Ann grew up in Maryland, surrounded by books. She started writing stories as soon as she could hold a crayon. In kindergarten she was sent to the principal’s office. She thought she was in trouble, but the principal just wanted to read one of her stories.

After gaining degrees in psychology and social work, Ann worked as a clinical social worker, a Montessori teacher, and an autism therapist before rediscovering her passion for writing.

When she is not reading or writing, Ann enjoys travelling, baking, and spending time with her family. She also enjoys eating Mexican food with plenty of guacamole.

Ann has lived in many places, from Albuquerque, New Mexico to Frankfurt, Germany. She now lives in Virginia with her husband, young son, and a crazy Welsh corgi dog named Arthur.
