Harry Hiccers - A New Zoo

By Fierce Fun Toys, LLC
Price $4.95
Age 3-8 yrs.

This warm story entertainingly navigates the challenges inherent in finding ourselves in a new environment. A new home, school, or neighbors can be daunting or downright scary, at least until we get to know someone and things become familiar. Harry is a koala new to the zoo in which he and his family now live, who stays up high in the branches where he feels safe and things that are strange and new can be kept at a distance. That is, until Harry is visited by Charles, a giraffe whose long legs and neck bring him right up to Harry's level. One way Harry does like to be adventurous is with food, although veering from his steady diet of Eucalyptus always gives him hiccups. Charles encourages Harry's innate curiosity while acting as a good will ambassador, providing friendly support and information on Harry's new environment. Harry Hiccers is also available separately as a plush doll, for 24.95. Sometimes all it takes is one new friend to ease the way.
