Teggie Wants a Hippo for Christmas — Claudette Nicole Melanson

Christmas is coming fast and Teggie, a very sweet bunny, wants an unusual present delivered by SantaBun this year. His brother and sister have doubts since this very large gift might eat them out of house and home--if what Teggie wants even fits in their home! Will Teggie find his fondest wish on 'Chrissamas' morning under the tree? Children will love this whimsical Christmas story of the little bunny who wishes for the most impractical of presents to make his holiday happy and bright. A heartwarming story to enjoy by the fire with a cup of hot cocoa on Christmas Eve, kids are sure to enjoy the colorful illustrations and Teggies' innocent thought process as he tries to justify a Christmas gift his brother and sister are certain will never fit into their lives. Teaches considerate behavior, being happy even when someone might not end up with what he or she is wishing for and celebrates holiday goodwill and cheer. Teggie Wants a Hippo for Christmas will delight children of all ages and inspire plenty of Christmas spirit. Children who love hippos will enjoy the realistic renditions by Jay Diloy.
