All through the hippo night, hippos play with great delight.

Publisher Marketing:
From the one and only Sandra Boynton comes an all-new deluxe edition of the picture book that started it all: Hippos Go Berserk! Celebrated for 45 wild years, this modern classic has been completely redrawn and redesigned by Boynton for a new generation of readers (and hippos.) And don't worry--the board book version (first published in 1996) is still alive and well!

The story begins quite simply, with no hint of the chaos ahead:
One hippo, all alone, calls two hippos on the phone...

Exuberant hippopotamus guests show up in ever-increasing numbers, until an all-night party is inevitable. This snazzy new edition honors the enduring power of a deft and nuanced depiction of the Hippo Condition.
