review:
'Harvey Hippo Wants to Fly!' by Lisa Sankar-Zhu is about a cute hippo who wants to do something he wasn't born to do.

Harvey really wants to fly. He tries all kind of things like jumping in the air and flapping his arms and legs. He makes a set of wings. He is determined to fly. He gets suggestions from some animal friends (I love how the porcupine carries his snacks arouns!), but nothing that gets him airborn. When his mother asks, it spurs his creativity and with any luck, he'll find a way to soar.

It's a cute picture book, and I liked the use of creativity used by Harvey. Even though he doesn't have the capabilities, he finds a way around them. That's a good lesson for kids as well as adults.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Lisa Sankar-Zhu and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
