Inhaltsangabe

From award-winning shoe designer Kat Maconie comes a rollicking rhyming tale about many critters and the numerous shoes they wear.

Everyone knows that gators love waders
for splishing and splashing around.
While up on the docks you'll find spiky-toothed crocs
in stilettos for going to town.

But what kind of shoes does a hippopotamus choose?

This gorgeously witty picture book will delight and entertain readers of all ages. Readers will love calling out the cats in smart ballet flats, the bears wearing boat shoes, donkeys in mules embellished with jewels, and many, many more. With stunning illustrations by Sebastien Braun, What Kind of Shoes Does a Hippopotamus Wear? will be a book destined to be picked up and read over and over again.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Kat Maconie is a London-based footwear designer who started her own label, which also produces handbags and jewelery, in 2009. She has partnered with other organizations for projects including limited-edition pieces and pop-up cocktail bars. What Kind of Shoes Does a Hippopotamus Wear? is her first picture book.

Sebastian Braun has enjoyed creating images for as long as he can remember. As a child he spent countless hours drawing, but to his disappointment, his school offered no art classes. Without any art training, he went to Strasbourg University to study history, which shared a building with the art department. Within two years he'd switched subjects, specializing in in applied arts before taking on a teaching specialization. Since graduating, his studio has become piled high with his work--from board books to nonfiction to children's picture books.
