From book cover: A Snuggle and Read Story Book. One day, Ms. Jones took her class to visit the monkeys, the tigers, and the hippoptamus at the zoo. But when she leaned too close to the railing to feed a hipo a peanut, the hippo ate Ms. Jones instead. Who will teach class now? Why the hippo, of course!

I say: Funny story. Little ones will love having it read to them. Beginning readers will be encouraged to get through this book and see what happens ultimately. Vivid, cartoon type illustrations.
