The Hippo at the End of the Hall | Helen Cooper
3 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
When Ben receives a mysterious invitation to an odd museum, hes swept into a peculiar world of forgotten secrets and wild magic in this illustrated novel. The invitation to the Gee Museum was delivered by bees. It wasnt addressed to anyone, but Ben knows that it was meant for him. Why else would the images on the postcard have stirred up memories of his father, who was lost at sea long ago? Ben makes his way to the old dilapidated building to find a host of curious talking animals awaiting his arrival. They are certain he is the only one who can save the museum. But Ben and the animals in the Gee collection will have to outwit a devious rival museum owner and a greedy land developer. With a bit of luck, some strange magic, and a little help from his mom, Ben might succeed in ensuring the future of the museum and finding the answers about his father that hes been searching for his whole life. Helen Coopers first novel brims with mystery and hope, and her lovely illustrations bring the wonders of the Gee Museum to life.

One more MG book to preview—this one caught my attention right away because...there‘s a hippo!!! When I was little, my go-to stuffed animal was a hippopotamus which, with all the wisdom & creativity of a child, I named...HIPPO. I can‘t wait to see what this book is all about. ❤️🦛❤️
