“Samuel Jennings Vinson is a master virtuoso in his bodacious new book The Hippopotamus Thesaurus: A Hefty Menagerie of Delectable Words, Volume 1. Though some words may seem cryptic, they are delightfully brought to life through his rambunctious artwork and poetry. This book would be a wonderful addition to any teachers’ classroom collection.”
