Description

Veronica is a young hippopotamus with a big dream: to become famous. She sets off to find her fortune in the city, but things don't quite go as planned. In the bustling streets, Veronica causes more chaos than she anticipates, bumping into cars and startling pedestrians. Despite the mishaps, Veronica doesn't give up on her dream. When she returns home to the riverbank, she finds that her adventure has made her a local celebrity among her fellow hippopotamuses. They gather each day at sunset to hear about her exciting experiences in the city. Originally published in the 1960s, this charming story by Roger Duvoisin is now available in a new edition from the Bodleian Library's children's book imprint.
