Capture the Spirit of Fiona!

Spring and summer in Greater Cincinnati always gets me excited about going to our fabulous Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens. And for the last six years, when I think of going to the zoo, I wonder, “Will Fiona be out? Will Fiona be awake? Will Fiona smile at me?” I know I am not the only one anxious to see the spunky little hippo!

Fiona the hippopotamus has captivated people around the world since she was born prematurely on January 24, 2017. She arrived full of sass along with the will to live, and we were in love. She is so popular that books have been written about her. And movies made about her! Of course, Boone County Public Library has them all. Whether planning a trip to the zoo or just interested in learning more about Fiona, these titles do a wonderful job capturing her spirit and her story, along with her zoo friends and family.
