Summary
Fiona la hipo relata la vida de la irresistible sensación de Internet, del zoológico de Cincinnati, que atrapó los corazones de todo el mundo con su inspiradora historia y su personalidad intrépida. Con más de 235.000 fans de Facebook y 202.000 seguidores de Instagram, es el hipopótamo más conocido y amado del mundo. Fiona nació prematura y pesó tan solo trece kilos, por eso nadie pensaba que sobreviviría. Pero su valor y determinación (además de mucho amor y apoyo de sus cuidadores en el zoológico) la ayudaron a salir adelante y convertirse en un hipopótamo feliz y saludable. Con cada desafío que enfrentaba, Fiona hacía un resoplido, movía las orejas, y decía: "¡Ya lo tengo!" ¡Y lo logró! En esta historia encantadora, que está inspirada en la verdadera aventura del heroico hipopótamo, te unirás a Fiona y sus maravillosos amigos animales en el zoológico y verás cómo el mundo entero se hace eco de esta historia divertida e inspiradora sobre la amistad y la perseverancia.
Summary
On January 24, 2017, Fiona the hippo was born at the Cincinnati Zoo, six weeks before her due date. She weighed only 29 pounds, which is very small for a Nile hippo. She was too weak to stand and nurse from her mother, so Fiona received around-the-clock attention from the zoo's animal care staff, dubbed "Team Fiona", and even from nurses at Cincinnati Children's Hospital. The whole world watched as Fiona learned to eat, walk, and swim. Her challenges were big, but the baby hippo's spunk and incredible will helped her prevail time and again. Since her birth, millions of people from around the world have been pulling for Fiona to keep fighting. As she grew stronger so did her social media following. Fiona became an internet sensation and now even has her own show on Facebook. Fiona fans have traveled from as far away as Australia, Germany, Brazil, and Japan just to get a glimpse of the fearless and feisty hippopotamus. Now the star of her own picture book, Fiona takes center stage once again in a whimsical story inspired by her incredible journey. A heroine for children (and adults!) everywhere, fabulous Fiona will steal readers' hearts and give them the courage to face whatever challenges they might have in their own lives
