The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them.  If you need to see photos of the actual book or have questions about the condition, please call or email.

Harriet the Hippopotamus decides she doesn't want to be a hippo anymore, so she moves into a house and pretends to be something else.  She becomes very unhappy and forgets how to smile, so she tries many things that make people happy like giving a party, eating yummy foods, exercising, etc., but nothing works.  Finally she listens to an owl who tells her she should just be herself.
