Welcome to Hippo Park
Our list reflects the joyful, surprising, often befuddling, and endlessly fascinating world our children live in. Hippo Park books are fun and funny—because laughter brings people together, and it brings kids to reading! Done well, funny goes deep, too—helping kids feel seen and understood.
We hope our books will bring you and the children in your life wonder and delight!
