Fiona is first to the swing set, but her swing is too high to reach! “Help me, please, Herbert,” she asks her brother.

With his help, Fiona gets comfy in her swing, gets a big push–and up she goes! “Kick and tuck,” Herbert encourages! And she’s off! Herbert joins, too, and the siblings soar up to the sky (and over a beautiful rainbow) in their imaginations! 

Rilla Alexander’s hippo siblings, Fiona and Herbert, are adorable and kind! Her bold. bright colors and the social emotional messages in these precious books meet kids exactly where they are.
