Duck and Hippo Give Thanks by Jonathan London

Duck and Hippo are thankful for good friends! It’s the day before Thanksgiving, and Hippo has his heart set on having a good old-fashioned feast with Duck and their friends. Together, Duck and Hippo go shopping for food and invite Turtle, Elephant, and Pig to share the special day with them. Then they get everything ready. But while Hippo goes to bed dreaming of his good old-fashioned Thanksgiving, Duck is busy making her own plans. There’s going to be a BIG surprise—one that will remind Hippo of all he has to be thankful for. Join Duck and Hippo for a memorable celebration!

“This message of appreciation fits in well with the Thanksgiving themeHippo and Duck both demonstrate patience and compromise in their friendship, even when the differences between the two seem destined to lead to clashes. The cartoon illustrations match well with the playful tone of the story…A fun choice…wherever friends and family gather.” —School Library Journal “The message of enjoying fellowship and valuing each individual’s contributions is a worthy one… Joyner’s anthropomorphic cartoon animals are cheery.” —Kirkus Reviews “Joyner’s comedic vignettes convey the odd couple’s tender relationship and the contrast between their personalities.” —Publishers Weekly “It always warms this teacher’s heart when children can identify themes on their own and can see that books can have multiple messages.” —Beagles and Books “A festive and quietly wise lesson in togetherness, and acceptance of others’ differences—sentiments perfect for reflection during a season of giving thanks. Baby Bookworm approved!” —The Baby Bookworm “With underlying messages of kindness, celebrating differences, and trying new things, you are not going to want to miss this new holiday book!” —Library Mom “I love Duck and Hippo! These two friends couldn’t be more different, but they both have huge hearts and are great to each other.” —Booking Mama “Duck and Hippo Give Thanks has such a wonderful message about embracing tradition, but it also carries the important message about being thankful.” —MomReadIt
