Review
A playground is the setting for this Hide and Seek Harry series title. There are not many places for a hippo to hide on a suburban playground but Harry is up for the task. He tries to disappear under a seesaw, crawls into a tunnel, and collapses on a slide. In each two page digital illustration Harry is easy to detect but his attempts to hide are very amusing.
Young listeners will find this entertaining. Older toddlers who notice the squirrel will follow his antics with delight. The colors used make the play equipment stand out against the crisp white sky where the font is bold and clear. Add this to board books collections and gift a copy at baby showers.
Overall Book Score: good
