When her mom puts her in a fancy dress on the day her Aunt Lil visits, Hannah the Hippo must get help from her animal friends to clean up when she can’t stay away from the squishy mud puddles in the yard. Hannah the Hippo’s very favorite thing to do is play in the mud. She could spend all day dancing, rolling, and jumping around in the cool puddles. But when her Aunt Lil comes to visit one day, Hannah’s mom dresses her in a perfectly clean pink dress for the special occasion and insists that she must not play in any mud today. As hard as she tries to obey her mom’s orders and keep her dress sparkling clean, Hannah finds herself playing in a sloppy, mushy puddle of mud without even noticing. Calling in for help from some of her animal friends, Hannah is determined to clean herself up and return home in tip-top shape before Aunt Lil arrives. “Droll humor abounds in Schmidt’s pastel-dominated watercolors.” – Publishers Weekly

After six years of economic development work in Africa, Ernesto Sirolli witnessed how little most foreign aid programs were actually doing for the people they hoped to help-from creating a communal tomato field on the banks of the Zambezi river (only to be demolished by the river's hippos at harvest time) to donating snow-plows to African nations! However well intentioned, Sirolli points out, inappropriate development often creates more problems than it solves. Thus was the genesis of this exciting and unique alternative to traditional economic development termed "Enterprise Facilitation"- where depressed communities can build hope and prosperity by first helping individuals to recognize their talents and business passion, and then providing the skills to transform their dreams into meaningful and rewarding work.

In the summer of 1944, a shocking murder rocked the fledgling Beats. William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac, both still unknown, we inspired by the crime to collaborate on a novel, a hard-boiled tale of bohemian New York during World War II, full of drugs and art, obsession and brutality, with scenes and characters drawn from their own lives. Finally published after more than sixty years, this is a captivating read, and incomparable literary artifact, and a window into the lives and art of two of the twentieth century’s most influential writers.
