Bertie: Just like Daddy

32 pp. | North-South | March, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7358-2224-5 $16.95
(4) PS Bertie, a young hippopotamus, wants to drink coffee, read the newspaper, use a credit card, and more, just like Daddy, who appeases the eager hippo with age-appropriate options such as making a newspaper hat. At story's end, the tables turn when Daddy wants to play like Bertie. With their flower-patterned backgrounds, the illustrations enhance the sweet but slight story.
