Nobody really gets an oxpecker’s sense of humor. But the other animals on the savannah won’t even give his jokes a chance! Undeterred, our red-billed oxpecker finds a captive audience in creatures yawning or eating. He alights beside their wide-open mouths and delivers his favorite opening line: “Hey, I can see your underwear!” Then he flies off ! Hippopotamus, crocodile, gnu, chameleon, giraffe—no one is spared. But does he know when enough is enough? A perfect book for reading aloud, like a cheeky little ditty.
