Security Hippo is a daddy/daughter project. It is based on the concepts, ideas, and designs of my daughter Ocian came up with when she was 9 years old. The book follows the story of a young hippo who has a dream of becoming a ""security hippo"" after witnessing crimes in his town. His first assignment is protecting a child's dream from scary thoughts. The book is written in graphic novel form, featuring wonderful illustrations by Marlon Ingram.
