Te Hipo Huna

$19.50 NZD

A te reo Māori edition of this deft and delightful tale, packed with word play and madcap energy.

A class trip to the zoo descends into a chaotic hunt for the missing hippopotamus. Teacher, zookeeper and all the children join the search.

The noise and drama reach a pitch, and no one thinks to listen to quiet Liam, who really might know where the hippo is hiding.
