Happy Hippo Peeks from the Riverbank
Early in the morning, the cheerful hippo pops his head out of the calm water to watch the sun rise behind the tall grass and distant hills. He’s ready to greet his animal friends and play among the gentle ripples, hoping someone will bring him a tasty snack. What colors will you choose to brighten his riverside home?
FUN FACT
The Pygmy hippopotamus is much smaller than the common hippo, about the size of a large pig.
