Synopsis

“Boynton is the absolute master of board books.”—The New York Times Book Review
For more than forty years, readers have wondered what happens to the armadillo on the last page of Sandra Boynton’s But Not the Hippopotamus. At last, comes the long-awaited sequel!

The armadillo follows the less-traveled road: he picks cranberries, stops and smells the flowers, naps in the meadow, and at day’s end passes an overeager hippo sprinting in the other direction. Told with Boynton’s signature charm and unpredictability, But Not the Armadillo is a worthy companion to But Not the Hippopotamus.

Behold the armadillo,
with his armadillo nose.
That nose can take him anywhere.
He follows where it goes.

Sandra Boynton is a popular American cartoonist, children’s author, songwriter, producer, and director.

More than 90 million of her books have been sold, “mostly to friends and family,” she says. She has also written (with Michael Ford) and produced seven albums of renegade children’s music.

She lives in rural New England, and her studio is in a barn with perhaps the only hippopotamus weathervane in America.
