Scootapotamus Book One:
The Baby Arrives
Meet Scooty, a lovable purple baby hippo born with soft scooter wheels instead of hind feet. As he explores the African savanna with his loving parents, Scooty discovers that being different isn’t something to hide—it may be his greatest strength. A heartwarming story about family, belonging, self-acceptance, and celebrating what makes each of us unique.
Scootapotamus Book Two:
The Shrinking Waterhole
When the animals discover that their waterhole is shrinking, Scooty bravely sets out across the African savanna to find a new one. With courage, determination, and the wheels that make him unique, he learns how much can be accomplished when we face our fears, help one another, and work together.
Scootapotamus Book Three:
The Race to Nowhere
Scooty is back in a brand-new adventure filled with curiosity, challenge, discovery, and heart. In Scootapotamus and The Race to Nowhere, young readers will join Scooty as he navigates something new, asks questions, and discovers that the journey can matter just as much as where you end up.
