Synopsis

When a hippopotamus visits your home, don't be alarmed by his size. Welcome him warmly, play splashy-sploshy games, share a big warm bath with silly toys, and offer a crunchy salad treat. When it's time for him to leave, do a little dance and say goodbye in style. These gestures will make your hippopotamus friend smile and eager to visit again—perhaps with a friend next time!
