Hippo Has A Hat - Tapa dura

Lots of clothes! Let's try them. Maybe we can buy them. There's chaos in the clothes shop when the animals go on a glorious shopping spree. Zebra's zip is stuck and Toad's tracksuit is far too big, but Flamingo finds a stylish bag, and Caterpillar's shoes are really cool. You've never seen a fashion show like it! Julia Donaldson and Nick Sharratt team up in this colourful animal adventure, Hippo Has a Hat.
