Author Elliott Kalan will be visiting virtually with books fulfilled by Once Upon A Time. If you would like a book signed and personalized, please order below.
About Sharko and HIppo: With tongue-twisty wordplay and escalating absurdity, this is a fall-down-funny farce that will surprise and delight readers--from television comedy writer Elliott Kalan and acclaimed illustrator Andrea Tsurumi.
When Sharko calls for a boat, Hippo pulls out a goat.
He wants a pole, but Hippo gives him a pail.
And instead of bait, a beet and a boot!
Hippo's coat pockets seem to have everything except what Sharko asks for!
Will their fishing trip ever get off the ground?
About the author: Elliott Kalan has written for teeny toes (No! TV shows!) like Mystery Science Theater 3000, The Who Was? Show, and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, as well as atomic cooks (No, Hippo! Comic books!) like Spider-Man and the X-Men. He is the author of Horse Eats Frog (Hippo, it's Horse Meets Dog!). He lives with his wife and two sons in Gross Angeles (HIPPO!).
All books will be shipped directly to the library.

Staff Picks
I am unable to put into words how much I loved this book. Each of Sandhya's pervious books are wonderful (When Dimple Met Rishi and From Twinkle, With Love). I read this book all in one night and was so happy with it that I sat down the next morning to write down my thoughts but I felt so intimidated by how much joy this book brought me. Strange to belive, but I just don't think my words would be able to describe to you the sweet happiness, quiet power, and gentle love in this story. All I can tell you is that this book will leave you grinning from ear-to-ear.
