Amos the hippopotamus takes his tick bird, Amoeba, and her family on what he hopes will be a fun vacation, but he finds himself competing with Amoeba's imaginary friend.
I gave this book 3 stars because it was about a tick bird and a hippo and their problems. But at the end it got better.this is my favorite part when he meets the tick bird’s named Amoeba and she sits on top of the hippo’s head and she made a nest. The hippo is being made fun of because no hippo has a birds nest on his head. His friend said he should fire the tick bird but he didn’t have the heart to. A snake said he will eat her for him but that didn’t sound good. So he told her to go away and when she did she almost got eaten by a snake.the best part is when the hippo starts to felt bad so he went to find her and he found her,she was in the snake’s mouth. Then he got her free the snake came after him and the hippo smashed the snake into a tree and he ran back into the forest.
