This little children's tale about the overactive Hippy Hippo is bound to bring pleasure to its young reading audience. The story is told in rhyme about a young hippo that is always on the go and how he eventually settles down as he matures and becomes an adult.He lives on the Island of Tahiti with Mother Hippo who, at times, is frustrated with his hyperactivity. It appears that he outgrows his childlike "ants in the pants" activities and eventually finds a female hippo to embrace. Mother Hippo is very pleased to become Grandmother Hippo as Hippy Hippo starts a family of his own. The illustrations are bright and colorful and add to the reading pleasure.
