Young readers can immerse themselves in the colors surrounding the waters of the Nile as they follow the story of a curious little hippo! Count 1, 2, 3 as Little Hippo looks for a place to hide. His game of hide-and-seek leads him to his bath, where he, in turn, will have to look for his friend the butterfly. Part of the First Steps in Art series, this colorful tale introduces toddlers to fine art and features a bright-blue Egyptian hippopotamus figurine from the Louvre Museum. Can you find him hiding along the banks of the Nile in the golden sands and cool blue waters? Each book in the First Steps in Art series aims to spark an early interest in toddlers for the world of fine art from famous paintings to ancient figurines and includes a short lesson in art history.
