The Adventures of Bentley Hippo

I read this with my daughter who is 3 in July, she liked the images and really understood the story.
She has been caught about being kind and this book was another great way for me to talk to about the subject with her.

I think it handled the topic of bullying well and it was done quite subtle too.

The images were lovely and bright and it is another great story featuring Bentley Hippo and his friends - 4 stars from me - highly recommended!

My family loved this book! Adorable and fun, giving a great message to young readers! Absolutely love that it’s Kindle friendly too, makes it perfect for on the go!

Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Superb illustrations and a very good story of friends helping another of their friends who was the victim of bullying because he wears glasses.. Thanks NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for this free copy in return for an honest review. Top notch book!!!!

I enjoyed this book! I give the illustrations 5 stars and the storyline 4 stars. This was a cute little book about being kind to each other, and although a little long for my liking, would be a perfect book for a storytime about kindness.

This was a cute book about the importance of acceptance and not bullying one another. The characters were likable and the pictures were vivid. My only downside is that the story ended up being a little too wordy for my 6 year old niece to focus through it.

A cute book that reminds children that kindness and caring is the best gift you can give your friend. Bentley and his friends are sad and concerned for their friend Tubby who was bullied about wearing glasses. I read this to the 4 year old that I nanny and he enjoyed it. He was engaged with the story and loved the different animal illustrations. The story reminded him that bullying is not nice and if he or a friend is being bullied they should tell their parents or teacher. He thought the bus driver's song was hilarious and made me sing it multiple times! It was such a small part of the book but it kept him excited about listening to the story. I recommend this book for preschoolers to help them remember that an act of kindness can help someone feel better and helps them feel good, too. I am grateful to Netgalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I received an advanced reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

This is a cute and easy to understand book for young children about bullying and what it is and looks like.
One of the animals was sad because he had been bullied for wearing glasses. Bentley and his friends comfort their friend who is sad and look after them.
This book has a great note at the back for an adult to discuss with the children about bullying too.

The Adventures of Bentley the Hippo is a fun story about a group of animals on a school trip to the fair. As well as being a cute story, it has a very important message about bullying and the importance of friendships. The illustrations in the book are really cute and the story is enjoyable and easy to follow, I just wish there had been a better introduction to the characters as I haven't read the previous book. It's still a really nice book though and a good lesson in kindness, which nobody can have too much of.

The Adventures of Bentley Hippo by Argyro Graphy is the second book in the 5-book series. Bentley Hippo is on a quest to inspire children around the world to be kinder, gentler and better in every way possible. In this short book, Bentley is taking the trip with his friends to a fair and is worried about his friend, Tubbby who is missing.

As you delve into the story you find how he then goes out on the search for his missing friend and how the author has touched upon the subject of bullying.

I have always felt that virtues like kindness and honesty should be inculcated in the kids at a younger age, and there can be no better way to possibly do this, than short, sweet and interesting stories that hook them up and make them want to be like them.

This book for kids is an absolutely suitable and a great bed-time read. The story is short, sweet and simple, and the colorful pictures and the exaggeration done through them is just as interesting.

The Adventures of Bentley Hippo. A very cute little book about kindness. I love the pictures. I think children would enjoy book because of the illustration.

I was instantly drawn to the vibrant front cover. Bentley is a loveable character and I found a hippo a refreshing change to other animals commonly found in picture books.

I think the text and illustrations are full of charm and very age appropriate. The topic of bullying is globally relevant, relatable to all children and an important one to tackle. The story does this effectively and gently. I would definitely read more Bentley books in future.

I received this as an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion. My children adored the story of Bentley and the illustrations. This was a cute read that had tons of Kindergarten sight words present making it perfect for my 6 year old to assist me in reading. I would definitely gift this to friends and family with small children. Great read!

A back to school adventure with Bentley and his friends. Vividly colorful with quirky and fun characters, that would put a smile on any child's face.

***** 5 Stars

This is a lovely read for a parent and child to share together or for preschool teachers to share with their class.

Children will enjoy seeing lively illustrations of animals they know. The story is sweet as would be expected for a book of this type.

I received an e-book advance reader copy from #Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I am under no obligation to give a positive review.
