“Boo!” cried George.
“Have mercy!” screamed Martha.
Martha and her stamp collection went flying.
“I‘m sorry,” said George. “I was feeling wicked.
“Well,” said Martha. “Now it‘s my turn.”
“Go ahead,” said George.
“Not right away,” said Martha slyly.
I always forget how funny Marshall‘s books are. Have mercy!

I loved the premise of this story and the characters. However, there were so many characters introduced in such a short novella that none of them really got the depth they deserved.
pickI loved this story just as much as the first! And the way everything came together at the end was *chef‘s kiss* perfection! I‘m going to be thinking of this alternate history that could‘ve been for a long, long time. 🦛
pickThis was SO MUCH FUN! A great caper, some may say. I absolutely cannot wait to read the sequel. 🦛 What wonderful characters and twists to the plot!
pickDefinitely getting a hippo tattoo after this series! So fun and such a wild romp! 🤠🦛
I may like this one even better than the first! 🦛 I wish there was a graphic novel version!
pick(2018) Here's two novellas and a couple of short stories set in an alternate 19th century America where hippos inhabit the Mississippi. They're basically western capers with hippopotamuses and an inclusive cast. They're light and a lot of fun.
