This book is about someone, the hippo, trying to change his or her self in order for the another person, the cheetah, to want to be friends with them. However, by the end of the story, the hippo realizes that it is too hard to become the cheetah's friend, so the hippo sticks to what it likes to do, and eventually the cheetah realizes how good of a friend the hippo was and comes back to make amends in the end. I liked that this book showed how you shouldn't have to go out of your way to change in order for someone to like you. It is good to just be yourself. I'd recommend this book for grades 3-5.… (más)

This book is a good read, but for entertainment only.… (más)
