An illustrated first field guide to the adorable pygmy hippo from expert Dr. Fiona Sach, featuring illustrations by Lisa Maria.

You've probably heard of Moo Deng, the pygmy hippo in Thailand who went viral on social media for her sassy antics, but there’s so much more to learn about these elusive creatures. Discover why the pygmy hippo’s skin is always shiny, the surprising aquatic mammals that they’re closely related to, and how their unusual toilet habits help support the ecosystem. You’ll also discover the threats they face in their natural habitat and how you can help. Filled with simple science and plenty of animal facts, it’s a must for all pygmy hippo fans!

Pygmy Hippo (Young Zoologist) is part of an exciting series of collectable animal books from Neon Squid aiming to inspire the next generation of biologists and conservationists.

About the Authors

Neon Squid creates beautiful nonfiction books for inquisitive kids (and kids at heart). We believe the most amazing stories are real ones, so our books are for children who want to decipher ancient scrolls, orbit distant stars, and dive into the deepest oceans. Our books are a labor of love―written by experts, illustrated by the best artists around, and produced using the finest materials, including sustainably sourced paper. We hope that by reading them kids are encouraged to further explore the world around them.

Lisa Maria is an illustrator and designer based in Illinois. She loves creating an enchanting design for children’s books. When she’s not drawing, she loves to play with her dog, Yumi, and watch K-dramas!
