I think this is Just The Right Stripes.
I am looking for a children's picture book about a young zebra who was asking other animals how may stripes it had. The only parts of dialogue I remember is the hippo saying "One, two, three....a lot." and at the end the zebra's relation, I think its mother or grandma or something, said "Too many for a tiger, not enough for a mongoose, but enough for a zebra." What is this book called?
