Book Description:
It’s Fiona the hippo’s very first Christmas, and the zoo is sparkling with
holiday spirit. When the adorable little hippo asks her friends, “What’s
Christmas?” they set out to show her all the wonders and excitement of the
season. With each new experience Fiona lets out a snort, wiggles her ears, and
asks, “Is THIS Christmas?”
Amidst the snow, twinkling lights, mistletoe, and
stockings, Fiona ends up meeting a new friend at the zoo who helps her discover
the true meaning of the holiday: Love. Snuggle up with your little ones and
join Fiona and her adorable animal friends for a heartwarming holiday romp
through the zoo.
My Review:
A Very Fiona Christmas is a delightful story of a baby hippo discovering Christmas for the first time. Living near Cincinnati, I am familiar with Fiona. She was born six weeks premature at the Cincinnati Zoo. She survived and thrived and has become a favorite of young and old. Richard Cowdrey's illustrations are fantastic. The color and movement of the beautiful characters will delight children. If you are looking for a gift for an animal lover, and what child isn't, pick up a copy of A Very Fiona Christmas. I won't spoil the ending, but I'll say it is perfect. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
