Description
|
|
|
|
The author and illustrator of the Charlotte Zolotow Award winner What James Liked Best introduces us to an intrepid and lovable hippo named Darlene in this picture book of short chapters for readers up to 8. Determined to be a star, Darlene auditions for theater class and is first given the part of the Flood in Noah's Ark. Unfortunately, she accidentally throws her pan of water into the audience. Yet the theater critic for the Daily Weekly finds the unexpected inundation "refreshing" and gives Darlene a good review. In Outer Space and Sleeping Beauty, similar disasters occur, but for a star like Darlene, everything comes up roses.
