Publisher's Description

▼▲

Five more short stories featuring the two best hippo friends, George and Martha.

Like all best friends, George and Martha butt heads sometimes. In this volume, the companions (and readers) learn the importance of listening to each other’s needs, having good boundaries, and that maybe commenting on your friend’s junk food habit isn’t the best idea....

A man with a talent for friendship, James Marshall defined its very essence in his stories about the world’s two best friends. Each of these five brief tales is filled with humor, and James Marshall’s drawings are guaranteed to spark feelings of empathy, delight, and self-recognition.

Author Bio

▼▲

James Marshall (1942–1992) created dozens of exuberant and captivating books for children, including The Stupids, Miss Nelson Is Missing!, and the ever-popular George and Martha books. Before creating his canon of classic, hilarious children’s books, James Marshall played the viola, studied French, and received a master’s degree from Trinity College. He also doodled. It was the doodles, and the unforgettable characters that emerged from them, that led him to his life’s work as one of the finest creators of children’s books of the twentieth century. In 2007, James Marshall was posthumously awarded the Children's Literature Legacy Award for his lasting contribution to literature for children.
