Mayor Nenshi Reads: But Not the Hippopotamus

As we get closer to the Calgary International Children's Festival (May 22-26), Mayor Nenshi is demonstrating a bit of simple fun you can have with reading. But Not the Hippopotamus by Sandra Boynton is a a perfect read for kids and parents.

This is not Mayor Nenshi's only contribution to the Children's Festival this year. He is also lending his image for a giant gumball portrait that will be created by artist Franz Spohn at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA).
