Let's face it, Chubbo is a pool hog. And there is little the zebras and warthogs, baboons and elephants can do but leave, when this belligerent hippopotamus bellows, 'GET OUT OF MY POOL!' The precision of Lewin's word choice...and intensity of Chubbo's refrain make this an exuberant readaloud for potential pool hogs everywhere! This story is maximized by Lewis's brilliant, dramatic and softly realistic watercolor paintings of the wildlife and landscape of Botswana...The text is simple but rhythmic and rich with expressive adjectives, excellent for reading aloud. Fun for ages 3-7
