Wiggly Harold in the Muddy Puddle

A big round hippo named Harold stands in the middle of a squishy mud puddle, his toes just peeking out. Swirly lines cover his chunky body from his tiny ears to his fat little legs, giving him the wrinkliest, silliest look. His wide eyes pop with surprise, as if someone just told a very good joke. Even his giant snout is packed with curly folds that almost look like little rivers running across his face.

Harold’s soft belly nearly touches the ground, and his stubby tail disappears behind him. The puddle splashes around his feet, showing he has been wiggling and squishing all day. Not far from his round toes, the mud spreads out in squiggly puddles ready for even more stomping. Harold’s lumpy, bumpy skin makes every inch fun to color, and his funny face almost dares you to try a wacky color or two.
