Really lovely meaningful book

We recently recieved the grumpapotamus book which was personalised to my daughters name and picture of her we really enjoyed thr book and meaning behind it . Arielle enjoyed all the different animals in the book and especially the grumpapotamus. Ahe also loved pointing out herself and loved she was in her very own book
A very well written meaningful book about friendship and problem solving.
The manimals are magical and ariellw really warmed to them and enjoyed seeing all the characters and their personalities . The pictures are beautiful and arielle really does look like arielle.
We love the manimals doesn't just tell a story bur solves a problems and talks kf the value of friendship.
