"Hello, friends! We are so excited about today's review: Fiona's Feelings , written by Dr. John Hutton and featuring the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden's photographs of the internet's favorite baby hippo, Fiona! Using real photographs of Fiona's remarkably expressive face, this beginner's board book explores emotions like happiness, anger, silliness and pride, using simple rhyming sentences that are four to six words apiece. Objectively, this is absolutely a fad book, but so delightful that it's hard to care. For the unaware, Fiona the hippo became a media sensation when she was born six weeks premature at the Cincinnati Zoo, and the internet fell in love with her sweet face and playful personality as the zoo documented her care, recovery, and growth. And indeed, Fiona has a curiously emotive face and a rascally nature that makes a book of feelings featuring her a great fit. The rhyming text flows well and keeps things basic, but still has a lot of charm in keeping with the Fiona spirit. The quality of the photos was a little inconsistent, which was distracting to me, but JJ didn't seem to notice or care. The length is perfect for the youngest of bookworms, and we really enjoyed it.


So whether the Fiona craze ends up having staying power or not in the fickle minds of the internet, this board book is classically adorable enough to be timeless on it's own. Baby Bookworm approved!" -- thebabybookwormblog.
