"Wow, this goes far back. We had a Volkswagen that we named Veronica... whether because of the hippopotamus or not I can't remember. But I loved them both."
"the best part about this book is that there are TWO STORIES IN ONE - flip it over and there's a story about three little horses that is ridiculously fantastic."
