“You're stupid!" "You're ugly!" "You stink!" When the children of author Gary J. Stevens were younger, they would get each other upset by teasing with name calling. This common behavior among children often hurts feelings and damages self-esteem. Gary knew just how to turn this situation around. When the children were engaged in negative behavior, he would either tickle them or call them a “hippopotamus.” It always stopped the bickering and got them laughing. And he has used this knowledge to write this humorous book to teach children how silly name calling can be.

"If I Called You a Hippopotamus!” illustrates the silliness of name calling. When reading this book, your child will learn how funny it is to be called names, instead of how upsetting it can be. And it teaches them, through rhyme and rhythm, that humor is often the best way to stop a bully.
