Veronica, a hippopotamus who wants to stand out from the herd and be famous, travels to the big city where she indeed does stand out. Causing traffic jams, blocking sidewalks, and devouring a pushcart vendor’s vegetables in one big gulp, Veronia is arrested and jailed. How she discovers that there is no place like home is told with warm humor and sublimely mirthful illustrations that are great fun to share with a young child.

The book is cute.
But the star of this transact was the seller. They went above and beyond with a problem that I had and were so kind in the process. I will buy from them again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great children's book!!!
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2013
It's a sweet story of a hippopotamus who wants BIG things out of life. Well, don't we all? It's a great lesson to teach your kids that maybe you shouldn't always get what you want.

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2014
This book is in good shape, but the description was quite confusing. It was listed under "Hardcover" and titled as "Veronice-Paper, Hardcover." I was expecting a hardcover book, but for the price and the condition, it was worth keeping in paperback form.
