ReviewsTwo anthropomorphic animals meet unexpectedly and quickly become friends despite their differences. Twohy effectively creates distinct--and distinctly charming--personalities for his characters through their speech.. young listeners will be pleased to make the acquaintance of these two cheerful creatures and, quite possibly, inspired to view the world in engaging new ways. -- Kirkus Reviews, "Though they see the world differently and are such physical opposites that Hippo can barely fit an eyeball into Mouse's house, their open acceptance of each other's point of view shows they share the most important quality needed for meaningful connection." -- THE HORN BOOK, "How does a mouse view a hippo? How does a hippo view a mouse? And, more important, can they be friends? This is an entertaining commentary on artistic perspective, but at heart, it's a comical story of friendship ... a storytime hit and a favorite for art teachers as well." -- School LIbrary Journal
