Bookroo's summary

When Hippo starts acting bizarrely, his Serengeti friends—Cuckoo Bird, Monkey, Leopard, and more—are convinced he's lost his mind. As tales of his antics grow, fear spreads that Hippo might wreak havoc across the land. But could a simple toothache be the real culprit? Join this lively animal crew as they unravel the mystery and discover a surprising solution in this delightful tale of friendship and imagination.

From the publisher

One day, Hippo acts very strange. He bellows, spins in circles, and crashes into a tree. All of his friends think he has gone bananas! But has he? Or does he just have a bad toothache? Kevin O’Malley’s bright marker and colored-pencil illustrations bring to life the animals of the Serengeti as Cuckoo Bird, Monkey, Leopard, Giraffe, Zebra, and Elephant try to figure out how to help their distraught friend. Their off-the-cuff solution brings this cheerful picture book to a humorous conclusion.
