It starts with a case of hiccups during story time at the library. And that leads to an outrageous and hilarious adventure involving a hippo, a little sister, an overturned ice cream cart, a librarian who's afraid of heights, and a stack of library books that must be returned-on time and in good condition-if the narrator is going to get her very own library card. And nothing could be more wonderful than that!
