Synopses & Reviews
In Janik Coatandrsquo;s much-anticipated follow-up to
Hippopposites, a blue rhinoceros unabashedly demonstrates 16 pairs of rhyming words. His ability to appear andldquo;stinkyandrdquo; and andldquo;inky,andrdquo; or andldquo;caringandrdquo; and andldquo;daring,andrdquo; oftentimes lands him in compromising contexts.

concept board book.
