For the last several years, my niece and I have traveled to the BookCrossing International Anniversary Convention together -- it is held close to her birthday -- and I have given her a book about hippos. So far, this is what I have found for our trip to Athens. I will keep my eye out for more.

A birthday gift for a hippo lover.

I never logged this one either..... I am behind on things. I however thought this was an interesting book about africian Fairy Tales. They remind me of the Grimm fairy tales for they are a little dark.
But I appreciate this book because well... I LOVE Hippos! So It was a well recieved book. I think I will pass this along either at the Bordeaux convention or on my trip to or from.

Dropping this book at this LFL. Hope someone else enjoys it on their trip!

I do hope that whoever finds this reads it. It is a book full of characters waiting to come alive when you read about them. I hope you enjoy reading this book, and let this book continue traveling once you are finished with it.
