內(nèi)容概要
Grade 1–3—Ophelia, a cheery young hippo, is relaxing in her pool when she hears a distress cry from her friend Kevin, who has butterflies in his tummy. She races off, first-aid kit in hand, and as she passes her jungle friends, tells them of Kevin's malady. Each animal misinterprets the ailment and exaggerates the story until the infirmity ends in Kevin's demise. Of course, on the next page, the mistake is revealed, and the little crocodile is just fine, his case of lovesickness resolved and happiness shared by all. In this misty jungle, hippo, toucan, and meerkat are friends. Though the watercolor illustrations are well executed and match the tone of the story, the discussion of death in an otherwise lighthearted tale is a bit disconcerting for the intended audience.—Angela J.
