<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>When hippopotamuses come to live at the elephants' river, Elmer finds out why they have come and enlists his friends to help them make things better.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Elmer, the patchwork elephant, has been a favorite of children around the world since the first book debuted in 1989. <br /> <br /> In <em>Elmer and the Hippos, </em>the elephants are not happy. The hippos' river has dried up, and they have moved into the elephants' river. Some of the elephants don't like sharing. Elmer decides to investigate. He discovers the hippos' dry river could be fixed--but only if the hippos and the elephants drop their prejudices and work together.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>In this installment, the patchwork elephant uses his powers of negotiation to solve a conflict. The hippos' river has seemingly dried up, causing them to crowd the elephants' waterway and make everyone miserable. After discovering that fallen rocks are the problem, Elmer and his cousin Wilber rally the other animals to restore the river's flow. Job done, all the animals realize that working together is the best way to achieve a goal resulting in a splashy, happy, and satisfying ending for all. <strong>With its vibrant, eye-catching colors and engaging goings-on, this book is a visual delight.</strong> --<em>School Library Journal</em><br /></p>-- "Journal" (8/1/2010 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><p>The elephants get upset when hippos move into their river. Patchwork elephant Elmer, put in charge of finding out why the hippos' river has dried up, enlists both hippos and elephants to help remove a pile of rocks blocking the water. McKee's story, while a little heavy with its compromise-and-teamwork message, still manages to entertain with vivid, lively illustrations. --<em>The Horn Book Guide</em></p>-- "Journal" (4/1/2011 12:00:00 AM)<br>
