Your kids will listen with delight to the tale of Barnaby The Hippo who thinks he can fly like a hummingbird.

An illustrated cartoon book showing Barnaby's plans, his fixing of banana leaf wings to his back, how he climbs a tree and his eventual launch into space.

The book features Barnaby the Hippo, monkeys, a toucan and a hummingbird. Funny pictures and the chance for you to input sound effects that maybe your child will want to join in with. It's a tale of inspiration which is a lesson your child may wish to follow and, like Barnaby, really believe in themselves and gain in confidence.

Will Barnaby fly?

See exactly what happens and pass on the lesson that Barnaby learns himself regarding aspiring to complete things not normally expected, particularly of a hippo.

Delight your child with the Hippo Flight Song; a verse that takes Barnaby from planning, how he humms like a hummingbird, his launch preparations and the final result.

There's even an Official Certificate by the Jungle Bureau of Aviation.
