Book Description
Having been born in Africa during an era when owning a picture book, let alone affording TV was a luxury, ‘Tug Of War’ was inspired by many of the African folk stories that were told to us by my grandmother. These stories were occasionally told during evenings, after meals and were extremely entertaining as well as educational in a way that made me visualize them. As a result, I have been motivated to share this experience pictorially in this book. It tells of three characters, Elephant, Hippopotamus and Rabbit. The story begins deep in the African jungle where the agile and witty Rabbit entertains himself by challenging Elephant and Hippopotamus to a game of tug of war. The little animal selects the competitors on two distinct characteristics. They live in completely different environments and possess similar strengths. Elephant naturally prefers the inner jungle and Hippopotamus spends most of his time in the water. This presents a perfect opportunity for a perfect match with Rabbit handing each end of the rope to each large animal at different times declaring that he can defeat either Elephant or Hippopotamus to this pull game. It actually ends with both huge animals fiercely competing against one another yet ignorantly believing that Rabbit is on the other end. This teaches us to acknowledge and respect each other and not to judge each other in terms of natural built or stature.

Book Description
Ernie the Easter Hippopotamus ─ is a wildly comical tale of a young hippopotamus with a very special talent: to make brightly colored, "naturally hard-boiled," eggs. This soon gets him into big trouble with the other hippopotamuses, and he is forced to leave his African river home on a journey that eventually brings him to America, where he happily becomes the “Easter Hippopotamus,” and continues making eggs for little girls and boys. The book is longer than most children's picture books, with some 57 profusely illustrated pages, including a newly added five-page note about real hippopotamuses. It is intended both for young readers 6 to 8, and as a read-to book for younger children from age 2-5.
